Title: Idle problem
Post by: barclay03 on 20 June 2008, 12:56:47

Car seems to run perfectly fine when on the move, but on long journeys then parking up (or short journeys about town) it wont idle when i try to start it again... if i take it a blast it fixes itself.... thinking it could be a dirty ICV but just incase there was any common problems...

worth giving the ICV a clean as a start - dead easy anyway.

I had the very same problem and I cleaned the ICV and I have'nt had a problem since.

I cleaned my ICV on my 2.5 and the idle was still lumpy. I put a few drops of 3 in 1 in bothe onds of the ICV and let it stand for about half an hour and now it is perfect.

Well worth a shot.
