Re: corsa erratic idling
It might be your idle control motor, the stepper motor on the side of the throttle body.
Get gararge to put a tech 2 on and see if you've got any fault codes.
Re: corsa erratic idling
On the x10xe/x12xe engines the idle control motor is actually an ecu
controlled stepper motor rather than an idle control valve as on some other
engines so you can't clean it, it's a sealed bosch unit that you can't open
up. If you get the garage to put a tech 2 on it should show something
like "low voltage from idle control motor". If, of course, that's what the
problem is - I was just guessing, but it is a common problem with these
engines.
