do a search on 'idle control valve' probably just needs cleaning. its mounted in the throttle body on the side of the head, bit fiddly to get to but if you did the HG yourself then you should find it easy.

It is on the throttle body mate it is a small black motor about 40mm in length. you will need some torx bits t20 i think if it is the 8valve engine it should be easy to get to on the 16v it is a bitch coz there aint any space to work. if it is easy enough to get off try cleaning it first and the throttle body where it sits as this gets coked up some times. otherwise i paid 45quid from vauxhall. Good luck

Also if you are Scottish, why are you at the other end of the country in Portsmouth?! Admittedly, there are quite a few chavs down in Pompey but never heard them talk like that!!

Sorry... Back to topic!

You are not Scottish.
