The idle control valve, also commonly referred to as the idle air control valve, is an engine management component that is found in one form or another on the majority of road going vehicles. If the voltage is less than the specified range, then test the circuit for a high resistance. If the engine control module detects an issue with the idle air control valve circuit or signal, it will set off the Check Engine Light to notify the driver that there's an issue.
They updated the computer and addressed the other issues I mentioned and so far so good, but it usually takes a good 6 months for the issue to happen.

Got codes read at comes up with multiple misfires and map sensor appears faulty possible plugs and plug leads could be faulty. I took it to local mechanic but could not fix. I wouldn't think even a dodgey O2 sensor would cause that much fuel usage, so I am wondering if it's a dogey injector that is continuously injecting fuel and hence needs replacing.

In the last few months, my wife's 2008 Holden Viva automatic has begun stalling while in drive idling at traffic lights. Other times it idles high at about 2000 rpm. Also, do cars manufactured from 2004 onwards have a different service principle from cars made before year 2000? I have a 2007 Focus that was used at the same time, and you couldn't compare the two; the Focus is far superior. Would it be worthwhile to change them? Hi, I seem to have some weird issues with my mum's 2007 Viva Daewoo Lacetti where it would have rough idling and increased fuel consumption even after replacing the oil and filters.

If your oil was that bad it's causing excessive fuel usage then your motor will be near rooted from inadequate lubrication.
Been doing it for about a year and a half, although it stopped most of last year and started back up in Iuly of this year. The majority of viva's I have seen have been automatic If this is the case you need to have it diagnosed by someone who repairs auto transmissions.
