21. Jul 2006 at 10:01
 
Should this hole in the throttle body be clear so that i can pass a small allen key ie 1mm through it its the one that is linked to the rocker breather

it has two hoses attached to the bottom of it Oh its a 2.0l 16v

...

Thanks for any quick replys as i want to put this back together again but want to make sure its all done right

Yeah thats the one that can get clogged, when clear should help to improve idle.

Man I am getting Pis*ed Off Took the Car out for a blast on the motorway and it feels like its lost power now even after all the cleaning.

Should I of used Gasget sealent when i reasembled the throttle bits the gasget seemed fine as you can see from the photo, will air leak if gasget sealent is not used Ie giving a power loss.

Thanks

Possibly did you change the gasket for new?

Check you have no air leaks in the air intake pipe, and make sure all breather pipe clips are tight.

Did you torque the bolts to the correct setting when refitting the throttlebody.

Torque/torx

You are as confused as us

Torx are those funny star headed bolts

And we all know what torque is

The throttle body torque setting on the 2.0 is 9Nm should be the same for yours.
