Quick Question (mechanics).

Taking my car in for an EFI decarbon tomorrow. My car's idle is going too low/ fluctuating up and down during warm up. Will they clean the IAC valve and throttle body (which looks pretty dirty) during this clean up, or should I talk to the mechanic and tell him to have a look at it specifically!

Year I paid to have that done once LOAD OF well it was a waste of money I thought.

True. I'm getting it done for free though. Will talk to mechanic tomorrow, cheers.

as an auto electrician, carbon build up in the idle speed controller/idle air bypass and throttle bodies causes alot of issues. I would expect they would clean it all out.

Carbon cleaning fixed idle issues and that pesky flashing O/D light, must have been pretty clogged up! Cheers guys.
