i'm selling one on ebay if you need one all cleaned up and ready to go, is a bitch to get off though and fit a new one. starting price is £15 so cheaper than £100 brand new from vauxhall. | |

on a c16xe, the throttle body screws are put in from the bottom and go into the plastic inlet. on an x16xe the screws are from the top making the job soo much easier. when i did my headgasket these screws proved a right slag to get out. if you give the car a few good runs without too much stopping it might clear up a bit. or totally | |

depends how bad the problem is, i used to get it slightly a year back or so, and it fixed itself... ive cleaned and replaced almost every other sensor in the engine bay except for th ICV... so it must be the cause of it as i still get jerky throttel responce! | |
