Ooooo. I do remember seeing something like that. But will check again

Thanks. Having tried cleaning the spring and the butterfly without removing, will remove it to clean over weekend. Tried several times to clean the return spring in situ, but it will be easier to get at when removed Just waiting for the gasket to arrive

Dont think i saw a green O ring TBH, no. Spose it might have pinged off. (Should have thought of an airtight seal) Didnt know about the reset either, altho vaguely rember reading something. somewhen. Will try that Just ordered some O rings, Will give all this a go. As usual, many thanks, et...

Quite right. A must do. :-)

^ Thanks. Pretty much agree with everything you say. Will check that I replaced the ICV properly, cant remember a sealing ring or gasket. Yes- got gasket on order. Got used throttle body coming. Yes- ICV is a few inches past the butterfly throttle body. Yes- may well get hold of a used or...

Approaching traffic lights, braking, take out of gear at about 10mph, and the revs drop to 1000, then up to 2000, (Sometimes 2500 eek!) then down to 1000, then up to 2000, then down to 1000..... you get the drift. every second or so. Whats to blame? Ive had very recent history (bad) with the...

So- cleaned the ICV, and the car definitely better. However, not cured methinks. When idling at lights its sometimes as high as 1500 rpm or 1250 rpm, then drops and steadies at 1000rpm after about 2-3 seconds. When changing down (the in neutral split second) seems quite low on revs too which is...

Right- found a couple photos on this site confirming where the ICV is. Disconnected the pipe with the ICV on the end. It looked all carbonned up, so gave it a good clean with carb cleaner. Still do the inmlet tract with the engine running?

Does someone have a piccie of the ICV location please?

Having this issue too. Trying the ICV today, and any photos ot help out be nice. One already been posted on another thread (Thanks) but not very clear. Location of ICV.

no worries if you cant

Thatd be most appreciated

^ that the electronic one for £35?

Thanks. Really helpful. Be nice if they did a manual. Hey-ho

The main intake pipe and spray in there?

Spacers actually helped on my DS3

It seems a bit different, very slightly twitchy at rear, but havent driven hard yet. Could always take them off when putting track wheels on i suppose.

So leave the spacers on the rear?

Got all these issues my self and working thru them. Throttle body removal and clean for me on my day off tomorrow. TB spring looks well grubby even after squirting cleaner spray and WD. Gonna get an enlarged throttle body as a spare too.

^ whats that?

Would it be better handling wise to put my 20mm on the front and get some 10mm for the back? In the past ive always put bigger spacers on the rear as a) it looks better imo b) it usually adds more stability when cornering with a wider rear wheel spacing. Or go for 20mm all round?

^Thanks. Have now changed the internal steel cable (As first one snapped) and lubed it, lubed with spray where the accelerator cable enters the vehicle near the pedal. Certainly better, i thought almost cured at one stage. Then the intermittent revving between 1 and 2 k returned. So, cleaned...
