Title: ICV
Post by: ScottieMV6 on 23 May 2009, 17:01:07

Took the ICV off earlier to clean it (due to having fault code 46) and found this:

The inner part that moves is not closing the "hole" properly. I am sure that last time I took it off this was not the case.

Does this look right or could this be causing the fault code?

thanks

I know on mine ...... but no idea on a 4 pot. As it's name implies, regulates the air either side of the throttle valve ...... so it'll be near your throttle butterfly.  :y :y
