so i checked for the code and its an idle air control valve any one ever replace one themselves how hard is it and where is it.

 

What model year and trim (DX, EX, etc.)? Manual or automatic?

Often the valve just needs cleaning not replacement. Other conditions that affect the idle can also cause the code even though the valve is OK.

 

It's super easy in most cases.

We'll need to know year and trim like mk378 said, as well as auto or manual, so we can tell you exactly where it is. It's typically 2 bolts to remove it. You clean it with brake cleaner or carb cleaner.

 

its a dx manual i made an appointment to get it replaced should i do it myself or how should i clean it
