Opel / Vauxhall Corsa D 1.2 throttle body removal

[@days3348]

The inlet at 4:43 is very oily and dirty on mine, any idea on what i should use to clean that? Also noticed oil in the air intake pipe, coming from that thinner flexible pipe connecting to the top right of the engine, what does that one do and why am i getting oil in the intake?

[@CorsaDForever]

It's good to clean it. Carburetor cleaning solution or brake cleaning spray. The oil vapors reach through the short and thick hose to the accelerator sometimes and to the air filter. It happens especially in the colder season, when the oil vapor condenses a lot. You probably make a lot of very short trips.

[@jamesvideoland]

Hello mate, is this the LMM between the Air filter and the Acc-Throttle? But the Plug has only 2 Pin? Actually the LMM has 5 Pins, right? So what Part is this?

[@CorsaDForever]

It is an air temperature sensor.

[@jamesvideoland]

Thank you 😊

[@pataleno]

Do you have a video on cleaning this ? Did you just clean the body or does the engine side need cleaning. Sorry never done one of these before so worried I may screw it up. Just bought a bottle of throttle cleaner.

Hi there, could you help me, had my car, vauxhall corsa D 2007, into the garage three times now, changed spark plugs and coil pack and thought problem was solved, then engine management light came back on, went back to the my local garage and their diagnostics came up as an o2 sensor code near the catalytic converter,, that was changed too and engine management light came back on again when driving away from the garage and same issue with 15 or so minutes into driving, it would at times struggle to accelerate, could it be the ERG valve (throttle body) as the problem?

[@CorsaDForever]

What error codes did you have? It's definitely not from the throttle

[@Mikeybhoy1979]

@@CorsaDForever Going to put some redex in my engine to see if that helps with cleaning the fuel injectors and see if it helps any.

[@CorsaDForever]

This will most likely not help. Try to check if the MAP sensor is working properly. For this you have to monitor the values on the go on a tester.

[@Mikeybhoy1979]

@@CorsaDForever Just took my car for a drive with 250ml of redex in the tank and it is running better for now, will check the MAP sensor too, thanks.

Hi mate have a 2008 1.2 Corsa, throws error misfire multi cylinders then only Cylinder 4. I have changed spark plugs, coil pack and it still misfires on idle, drives a bit sluggish but once it gets going it seems fine does not seem like a cylinder issue. I have ordered a map sensor but could it be anything else? Also the o2 sensor at the front does not seem to do anything when disconected whilst started is that normal? Thanks in advance for your help

[@CorsaDForever]

Hi. Leave the sensors, the problem is not them. First try to check the spark plugs in the morning before you start an see if you find oil on their tip. If you find oil, you have to replace the valve seals.

[@GujarProject]

@@CorsaDForever Have had the plugs and coil pack changed and rocker cover gasket replaced as it was leaking oil. Still no luck but I do find it loses water.

[@vuckovicdragan1732]

Please show as how we can cleaning a injectors on corsa d 1.2 😕

[@CorsaDForever]

For now, I have no problem with injectors. Injectors rarely fall on this engine. Are you sure they are the problem? What are the symptoms?

[@MrFrankstanks]

hello i have a Corsa d 1.2 limited edition that has a slight misfire i replaced the spark plugs so it's either coil pack or my mate said give the throttle body a clean any advice, please.

[@CorsaDForever]

Most probably is the coil. The throttle body has nothing to do with the misfire.

[@Fabio-Ferreira]

Can you please tell me where is located the pcv valve? Thanks

[@CorsaDForever]

There is no separate pcv valve. The engine cover has some passages in it thru where the oil is separated.

Hallo Mate! EGR valve cleaning please!!!!

[@mattbarker581]

1:22 is that the intake gasket? Mines weeping from that area think my gasket has gone

[@CorsaDForever]

No. At the end of the video you can see the gasket, the green one. Normally it should be on the intake hole, but remained stuck on the throttle body.

[@mattbarker581]

@@CorsaDForever ah ok, so whats the gasket at 1:22 ? I'm not too sure what I'm dealing with tbh. I've been looking for a repair kit but cannot find one... might go to my Vauxhall dealer and see if they can order a set

[@CorsaDForever]

There is no gasket at 1:22. There is attached the air filter tube, with no gasket.

[@hlepism]

Do i have to disconnect battery before removal of throttle body?

[@CorsaDForever]

No need.

[@rthughes5861]

I am planning to remove and clean my throttle body on my 2009 corsa d 1.2, Do i have to bleed the cooling system after reinstalling it?

[@CorsaDForever]

There's no need for bleed. Just try to keep the removed hoses as high as possible so they don't leak to much.

[@kharali3475]

Hi mate, did you clean the the inside of the inlet manifold? My one looks like yours with oil and dirt inside

[@CorsaDForever]

I didn't clean it. Doesn't look very bad to me.

[@grrad76]

Is it possible to clean it with throttle body cleaner spray without removing it totally? Would you recommend that process considering my opc d 1.2 2006 with 173k km. ? Thx in advance

[@CorsaDForever]

@@grrad76 Yes. You can do it. You can open it with your hand to clean the intake side.

[@mattbarker581]

Like these videos, I have a Corsa D myself, find them useful! Could you make a video on installing a kill switch for the corsa? Seen other videos on kill switches but not specifically for the corsa

[@CorsaDForever]

Thanks for waching. I don't have that in plan. I would not recommend, everytime you kill the power more than 20-30 minutes it will reset the ECU settings, so after every start the engine have to learn again. Without curent you won't be able to open the car with the remote.

Hello, I have a Vauxhall Corsa Design 2008 1.4 Petrol and I checked for errors and I used OBD 2 and I got this code P1890 can you tell me what it means and what the problem is because I couldn't find a concrete result on google. Thank you, I am waiting for your answer!

[@CorsaDForever]

Hi. Before you start the engine put the ignition on and wait around 30 seconds. After this switch the ignition off, put it on again and start the engine. The throttle body it will calibrate itself. Try this first and see it solve the problem.

[@baset43]

I have a Corsa D 2008, the engine is a chicken, what is the solution and why

[@CorsaDForever]

Please reformulate, I don't get it.

Incearca sa scoti borna la baterie pentru 30 min. Dupa ce o conectezi la loc, pui contactul fara sa pornesti si il tii asa 30 de secunde timp in care se calibreaza clapeta, apoi iei contactiul si pornesti normal. Vezi daca isi revine asa.

Hello mate, my Vauxhall Corsa D has a problem, it keeps revving up small amounts on its own, and it takes a while for the revs to come down. All the sensors have been changed, and I have cleaned the throttle body, is there a chance my throttle body is faulty? Very helpful videos by the way!

[@CorsaDForever]

Hi. See how the evap valve is working. Especially if you have a facelift Corsa. Take it off and see if you can blow air throu it, you shouldn't.

[@dylans351]

@@CorsaDForever So if I can’t blow air through it, it means it is working fine? Also if this is not the problem, does that mean the throttle body is faulty?

[@CorsaDForever]

If you blow air it is faulty. If it is ok, check first for other vacuum leaks causes.

[@kacper3887]

I have a question, how did you mount it back, did you have to adapt something?

[@CorsaDForever]

For the XEP engines, after turning on the ignition, wait 30 seconds before starting the engine and that's it.
