Hi dude, Take off your PCV and check it. (next to ICV). Very common to get full of oil sludge and block up. I did everthing to mine to sort the idle problem and it turned out to be this. Need to change two of the hoses while your there too. Simple job. Took me 1 hour. New part cost £50 from Eurocarparts but £55 from dealer. Hoses from dealer only. Look up the DIY on Dougs Domain.

@GL0D I deleted the PCV mate. Ran fine for a few hundered miles but then this happened. might try reinstalling it and double checking hose fittings for any leaks. already tried spraying carb cleaner nearly everywhere to check. but will do again this saturday
