C180 - where is Idle Control Valve please?

[Scots_Man]

Hi,

My car has a slightly uneven idle. I know that the HT leads and plugs are fine, so I thought I would try giving the idle control valve/unit a clean out.

Can anyone please tell me where I find it on a C180 (1997) ?

Many thanks,

Gary

It doesn't have one, unlike earlier generation injection systems. Air flow sensor seems to be a favourite for poor running, but I'd check the basics first (plugs, air filter, etc).

Ah, that would explain why I couldn't find it :Oops:

Thanks for the reply MondeoMan. Will give the car a good check over the weekend.
