I've got a problem with my idle control valve atm - but I'm living with it, it only kicks in when you slightly come off the throttle + slightly go back on, providing you keep your foot down the idle valve stays open and it drives fine.

i beleive he could pick it up but that would be at a charge me thinks, i was £40 from Stoney to Arbroath not sure how much it would be for you. I would say just try your hardest to get it there, keep the revs up and you should be ok :) | |

Yeah I'll give him a phone tonight only thing is I don't know how I'll get my car to Arbroath as it's a nightmare to drive just now with it keeping cutting out. | |

I was going to go to Vauxhall and pay £30 for them to tell me exactly what was wrong with it then go somewhere else. Do you reckon this guy would be able to tell me what exactly was wrong with it? | |

My engine immobilizer light in my corsa is constantly on and whenever I go below 20mph it cuts out and I have to restart my engine. I know that I need to get this looked at and am getting it looked at but I just wondered if anyone had ever had this problem, is so what was the problem and how much did it cost to fix?? :( |
