take the car back as something is obviously wrong with it

you tried the throttle sensor or checked the coil packs?

The inlet pipe to the ICV is normally connected to the main air intake pipe. If this is not the case, it should at least have a little mini filter of its own otherwise you risk sucking crap into the ICV/engine which isn't good.

Try replacing the ICV for a genuine OE part, cleaning them will only work for so long. If it's not that then it could be the PAS sensor. It is supposed to increase rev's when steering so that the engine copes under the extra load. However when it is knackered, random stalling can ensue - ie at junctions or going round corners slowly.

what fuel are you using?

i had this not so long ago.

i used a different fuel station to my normal one, i never go to this one but didnt have alot of choice at the time! (and wont be going back!)

and it would try and stall when pulling up or when starting or just when driving. just as you have discribed

i went to a shell station(a new garage near me, woohoo!), a full tank of v-power and no problems since. once it was in the system not once has it tried to stall.

it is 16 mile round trip to the shell garage but as i do little mileage it is worth it. and it goes so much better .

it would be worth a try if you have cleaned everything else.





for those in somerset the new shell garage is in Lydford on Fosse, on the A37.
Between Shepton Mallet and Yeovil.
The only one in the area that i know of
