Throttle Body/idle Control Valve

[mattoufc]

Hi all!

 

I hope someone can help me.

 

My Fiacee's Saxo (2000 Forte) recently started to idle wildly.

After taking it to a garage, the mechanic said it will need a replacement Idle Control Valve.

 

Instead of paying over the odds to have it done at a garage, I wondered if any of you guys knew how easy it was to isolate and replace the Idle Control Valve on this model?

 

Also, the mechanic apparently mentioned that if I were to find a Throttle Body, that I wouldn't also need an Idle Control Valve, but I can't imagine replacing JUST the Throttle Body would remedy the main problem.

 

What do I need andhow easy will it be to do it?!

 

Thanks.

a replacement Idle Control Valve.

My VTS was being a bit funny like that, so i took out the idle control valve, 2 screws, and cleaned it, now its fine :-D
