    Strange Idle Issue?

    I have a strange problem where my car sometimes idles at completely different IAC positions when warmed up.

    For example, this morning I started up the car and left it sitting until it was fully warmed up and idling fine, however the IAC was sitting at about 150.

    I then drove a short distance up the road and stopped at a set of lights. Once the car found its idle again it was idling with the IAC at about 35 where I would like it.

    WTF is going on here??

    Looking at the logs, nothing has really changed. AFR is at about 0.97 lambda, IAT hasn't changed by more than 3 or 4 degrees, idle timing still around 16 degrees, same MAP, same RPM, etc.

    I tend to think my throttle body may be slightly sticking or perhaps the IAC is playing up? Throttle body is a Fast 92mm.

    Cheers
    Benno
