Classic Air Idle Valve - code 24

[pugtk]

Hi All,

Just sorting a few bits out after mapping, the idle air valve was coming up as a fault code after mapping.

No real issues with the running of the car, apart from maybe the odd time the revs dip below normal idle after a hard pull.

The valve was cleaned previously, but I was going to buy a full gasket kit on icp.

Or is it just a waste of money?

I had mine throw a code intermittently - usually when coasting off the throttle. Pulled and cleaned it - no change - turned out that it was actually my neutral position sensor on the gearbox that was the problem. Wire had snapped, car thought it was in neutral all the time and apparently it throws the IACV code

Will have a look! Thanks
