- VY V6 Ute 03
Hi , I am new here great forum. I have a VY 03 V6 auto Ute, I am in need of help Please.
It runs great, Idles fine at lights never stalls otherwise, starts first turn. But once warmed up & only at speed(fine at lower speeds) Stalls as you decelerate say coming into a roundabout or down a hill. If i keep just a breath of throttle(drive double footed) to keep idle at say 1000rpm it fine, driving me nuts as if i let drop under that on decel it stalls & loose steering & brakes, put it in neutral hit key all good back in action. Its like the throttle body needed cleaning So did that, was a little dirty nothing major, pulled out Idle control solenoid cleaned as well. No difference, does have a slight vacuum sound especially when cold i don't recall being there before this started, i cannot find an air leak, no fault codes, no lights on, runs fine, idles everywhere else, but this is getting dangerous as if it stalls at wrong time as it doesn't always do it i could cause an accident. Its like i need to wind up idle just a bit, but i am aware you should not adjust the set screw. Been reading all the other comments with similar but worse issues & people advising changing coils, cam sensors, fuel pumps, ox sensors etc.. If it was any of that it would die all the time, it's more like you take your foot off throttle shuts and it starves for air & cuts out. I am thinking Idle control solenoid or Throttle position sensor or maybe air leak causing vacuum issue. Has anybody ever seen this? Really could do with some advice, Please. Thank you.
