I recently had my clutch, radiator and driveshafts replaced on my 306 rallye (T-Reg). But now the car does not idle properly, I can drive for around 30-45 minutes before the engine cuts out? Any ideas?

its most likely the icv, idle control valve, take it out and clean it, theres a guide in the FAQ section.

Thanks. Since I last drove my car, it won't even start now. It tries to fire up - but then just cuts out. Any suggestions?

I did'nt attempt to clean it. When my car did'nt start I called my breakdown service, they tried to clean it. But they told me the idle control valve was knackered and therefore needed replacing. Is this an easy job to fix?
