Hi,
when I start my 03 toyota sienna,sometimes the idle is to high the dashboard shows 2000 RPM,sometimes it's low close to zero and the engine stops when i back-up.I cleaned the throttle body yesterday thinking it would fix the problem but it did not.usually when I start it in the morning the idle is high,but when the engine is hot during the day the idle is low.before i cleaned the throttle body the idle was either normal or low.I say normal because the dashboard showed 1000 RPM or low at almost zero.Does anyone know what i should do to fix this issue?
Thanks.
After about 100K + miles the idle air control valve (IAC) begins to collect carbon deposits that interfere with the movement of the spring-loaded valve. You will not be able to clean this without removal and dissembly of the IAC body. Use an emory cloth or fine sandpaper to remove the build up around the valve. This should free it up to rotate without binding. This is a temporary fix, of course, and will either require cleaning again or replacement of the valve. Getting to the IAC requires removal of most of the intake upto, but not including, the intake manifold. Total time is approximately 3-4 hours, but worth it. Good luck, and I hope this helps.
It can be issue
with IAC( idle air control valve) causing the problem.
