Title: ISV? 'Ow much!
Post by: eightyeightmph on 11 August 2008, 14:59: So the GTi keeps working the revs itself & its becoming quite annoying!

The ideal will stay around 950 then randomly (when it's warm) it shoots up to 2000 RPM.

I've had the ISV off in the past & flushed it to no avail & figured I'd had enough & just replace it....

Stealership wants £250 for one! :shocked:

So what are my option? Kells if you can get one on the cheap please let me know! :wink:

Are there aftermarket ones or other alternatives to the dealers?? :huh:

Post by: snifferdog on 13 August 2008, 15:55: you can have mine for £10 if you want.im not sure where it is or how to get it off as ive not done that before but i would imagine its pretty easy!!??
Title: Re: ISV? 'Ow much!
Post by: kells on 13 August 2008, 16:06: just waiting on a call back from my contact at the dealer

snifferdog, they basically just pull off from the manifold, theirs also a rubber clip it slides off this, you will see what i mean, and finally just pull the pipe from the induction area, really easy

Yea, you need an allen key to remove the HT lead plastic trim then its just there beneath, the connections just pull/clip off but if you just undo the bracket holding it (same size allen key) that'd be great as it means the rubber grip holding it won't break!

Cheers mate! :smiley:
Title: Re: ISV? 'Ow much!
Post by: kells on 13 August 2008, 17:18: The rubber grip on mine slides off without undoing the bracket, does on mine anyhow, i bought a new one of these recently as it happens (the rubber guide thing that holds it in place), cost 2 quid at the dealer..

How much can you get one for Kells? :wink:
Title: Re: ISV? 'Ow much!
Post by: GOLF_MK on 03 September 2008, 11:29: I'm trying to contact someone close to me who has a 16v to break (i need a drivers seat if it's any good!). I'll ask if he still has it (might be able to remove it for you and send it on).

Will keep you posted...
