    Default Please help!!

    Hey guys, im new on here and really liking the site and found it really helpfull.

    Just wondering if any of u guys could post a pic up of where the idle control valve is on my vectra. Ive got the 1.9 cdti 120 model.

    Ive cleaned the throttle body out as it was covered in gunk so just wondering wot else i could maybe give a little spring clean to in the engine bay???

    Thanks!

    egr valve is located back top right of the engine as you look at it. Easy job to clean and also clean the boost sensor, its the little black unit to the left of the egr valve. remove the black engine top cover to gain access to these.
