carl0s Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Has anybody got an idle control valve / IACV off a TT that I can buy? I know this should be in the wanted section, but nobody ever looks in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carl0s Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 (edited) Or group buy as i need one to That won't help, trust me - They're still over £450! Might be worth trying to sort a group buy on Kemparts p/n 150-7009, or Standard Motor SIAC426 / AC426.

carl0s Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 Will check for you mate Ooh yes please do. I've rang so many places today, breakers on eBay, used one of those 247parts.co.uk website things, camskill, whifbitz, QSD, etc. Nobody has one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this should be in the wanted section, but nobody ever looks in there. Is that an 'air idle control valve'? Was quoted over 400 notes from Toyota. Try Keron that's where I got mine.

Garage said it 'could' be the idle control valve. Turns out it wasn't it was the ecu. Glad I didn't spend £470 on something I didn't need.

I'm very very close to ordering one from the USA for ~£220 + customs taxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyP Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 What were the symptoms you had? I'm very very close to ordering one from the USA for ~£220 + customs taxes. Car was overfuelling. The garage checked pretty much every sensor on the car. Turned out all of the sensors were sending the correct information to the ecu but the ecu was misinterpretting the information they were sending. Got a second hand ecu from Keron for about 50 quid and it's worked perfectly ever since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carl0s Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 I've just took the IACV off the car again, and have taken it apart here at the dinner table, and I really can't see how there could possibly be anything wrong with it. THe bearings are good, it's clean inside, and when you turn the motor by hand the resitance feels as it should for a motor. Still need another one to try though ..

carl0s Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 Hmm. It looks like the N/A one will fit. Whether it'll actually work though is a totally different thing altogether. The N/A item is p/n 22270-46050 and looks like this: The Turbo item is p/n 22270-46060 and looks like this: http://www.css-networks.com/tt-valve.jpg The turbo one actually comes with with an adaptor plate though through which the coolant passes to warm up the intake air, and so actually comes supplied like this: http://info.rockauto.com/Airtex/2H1367.jpg You can see that the TT item looks like it's actually the N/A item plus the extra piece with the pipes, whereas the N/A one just bolts straight into the throttle body. Shouldn't be so hard to get hold of an N/A IACV .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 The nipple on the end of the N/A one looks bigger. Hmm. Still worth a look though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
