Idle Control Valve Which Ones Best

Recommended Posts

R5-al

My idle control valves playing up! Its fine when cold but as it gets warm the idle increases to 2k. ive tried cleaning it witch worked for a bit but has slowly gone back to playing up again.

My question is - witch valve is best quality for the money?. verary so much in price!I mean you can pay £10 including postage for one of ebay to £150 for a bosch one.so do I go for one in the middle ?? Anyone bought one lately?

Magnetti Marelli made the original ones, I believe euro car parts sell them, your local motorfactor might be able to sort you a generic aftermarket one.

 

its a 4 wire stepper motor rather than the 2 or three wire Idle valve that the MI/S16 engines use.

They don't sell them apparently I went in for one the other day and they don't stock them at all apparently. However I'd give it a go.
