Clio 172 ph1 throttle body fix?



  Clio 172 RS ph1
Hi, the rev are stucking some times on 2k+- until I hit the throttle and leave.
I read at the forum that there is an fix by clean it some way but I didn't found the guide.
Any help?
Thanks :)

Ideally remove it and clean it off the car. Spray the valve and spindle with carb cleaner and then re lubricate it and wipe excess oil. It might be the throttle cable that's the problem and would need replacing. I've done this fix many times and it worked for awhile. Eventually I bought a new one = much better.

May as well clean throttle body too incase it's that, can't hurt

I need to lube my cable up actually, and it's showing similar symptoms to this thread.

Oh and always good to see another Plymouthian around :)

My throttle is terrible but the car had a strut brace fitted when I bought it and the cable can't sit where it naturally wants to go. It's worn away all the rubber/plastic. I'm going to remove the strut brace and get a new cable. When the weather warms up anyway lol

I bought a new one from my local dealership. Only £29, probably cheaper from renai Wolverhampton on here Steve.

Cable that is, not TB!!

I water sand the TB with 1500 and finish with 2000 and over 2 weeks and its not sticking at whole.
But I will replace the cable too.
Thanks guys!
