hiya guys, my car used to idle at around 1500 rpm which i am guessing is around normal.
but recently its been idling just under 1000 rpm. any idea what it could be? not changes done since. only problems i know of are the exhaust going and in need of spark plugs. would this have any issue with...
the problem is on my brothers 2.0 16v megane coupe. I think it's gona be the ICV or something like that but I'd like a second opinion if you please.
Symptoms:
start the car from cold and the idle sits about 500rpm, tap the throtal and it cuts out quite easy when it's trying to resettle...
recently ive had to return to driving my 95 1.4 chamade, reason i innitially upgraded (amongst other things) was i had the head gasket done on the cham along with the water pump and timing belt, i skimped on the cost and paid some very sinister mechanic to do the wrok, since i got it back every...
Hi,
Just got a 1993 19 16v Cab. Nice car except the idle is hunting. Looked on the forums and see that the first place I need to look is the ICV.. but where is it! daft question I know, but I'm new to the 19. is it an easy thing to clean? if cleaning is nor good where can I get one to...
Im after a working Idle control valve for a 1992 phase 2 ren 19. My car has a dodgy tickover so am going to try and replace a few items.
If you can help and are willing to post me one, can you let me know.and let me know a price for it too please.

cheers, Lee
I have just cleaned my TB and ISCV as was idleing rough, but now ive done that the idle is sitting bout 1400 rpm and cant get it down, would anyone have a idea why this is? Cheers.
Right, was just driving along and suddenly at the traffic lights the car starts chugging worse than usual, with the idle at around 500, so i blip the throttle and go.. I'm at a steady 3k revs then I lose all power and the revs drop right down to 500 again while i'm still moving and while my...
Yet another nigle with the hybrid, lol. The idle on it is quite high and tends to fluctuate up and down by about 100/200 rpm. It seems to be totally random as sometimes it will idle around 1000rpm with no fluctuations for the entire time I drive it whilst other times it will idle around...
My car is running 3000rpm with the idle motor on..
And 900without, so I blocked 3 hoses and now it dies on idle (without the idle engine on).. And tryed using diesel start to find leakes, but the car only died of it, wich make me think that its running well fueled..
Question time.
The...

Hi there as i have posted before i have put an F7P in my volvo 340 and am over the moon with the way these engines perform.
Quick question, when i first start the car from cold and the 5th injector is working the car idles perfect, but as soon as this stops it hunts ever so slightly.
Then if...
couple of days ago the plug wells on the 19 filled up with water..started it up and let it run(not knowing they had water in them)it was idling fine drove about 5miles before i got to know,started runnig rough but before i could clen them out it cut out and wouldnt start up.
so i drained all...
Couldn't find an appropriate place to post this, so this will have to do.
The IACV (idle air control valve) on many of the 16v engines is the same one used on the Vauxhall 1.8 and 2.0 16v ecotec engines, this is worth knowing because, if you need to replace one, they are £160 at Vaux and...
ok,
my idle seems to be quite high, its a 95 RSi and when at lights it idles just under 1500 rpm, when you come do a halt at lights it will drop eventually and then go up again gradually... sometimes just under 2000rpm???
what can it be??
also how the hell do i fix my leaking sunroof...
Hi, my idle only drops to normal (ish) when I am still. If I have my clutch in and moving it will stay at 1500rpm. Then when still it eventully settles to 1000rpm which is still high and I don't know why it's doing it. New CTS, cleaned ISCV all pipes leak free.
Maybe my ISCV is shafted?
Chris, this will bring back bad memories of your mums grey one no doubt but the 5 i picked up last night seems to idle very high...i'd guess about 1500rpm or more.
I know you never sorted her one but what should i check?
