idle air control valve. when idling this limits amount of air comin in cz when foot off accelerator the throttle aint open. this opens it slightly and moderats the amount of air in, if it gets dirty it struggles-hence the altering idle

i perosnally had a problem the same as urs about 2 months ago
went to vauxhall to purchase the idle valve
and he se dto get it cheked out cos they are electronic and non refundable,
so i took it to vauxhall
found out it was throttle position sensor and a gasket on the throlle body
get them done and its fine!
