Idle Issues... 1.8 16v

[Ash J]

I had this years ago with mine. In the end I couldn't determine whether it was the TPS or the ICV, but replacing both solved it. I think the ICV was about £60, the TPS was second-hand.

I would doubt the lambda to be an issue - I had lamda problems on my 1.8 caused by a blocked catalytic converter, the lambda never was able to establish that there was a problem until the engine had already warmed up - ie. it was never an issue immediately after start-up.

Cheers for the advice.

This is what I was thinking about Lambda too, so hopefully that is fine, as car drives absolutely fine throughout rev range otherwise.

Hopefully when I fit this MAP and ICV which arrived today, that will sort it. Failing that, I will give the TPS a go.

Cheers.
