Default idle probs

ive got a uk spec eg6 with a b16a2 with very irratic idle it all started after my water pump died so got a new one in but ever since my warm idle has been over 2000 and closer to 3000 at cold and recently its started alternating between 1 and 2ooo, ive checked my ecu wiring and all seems good.

any help you can offer will be a bonus

thanks in advance

neil

idal air control valve, or throttle position sensor. that is what my guess would be.

is it surging or just too high? you can adjust the throttle cable if it's steadily high.

tried adjusting throttle cable but still same it is revving around 3 when cold but even when warm it will rev from 1000 to 2500 and then after a couple of minutes hold steady at 1900 but as soon as i drive anywhere again itll start revvin?
I also tried to have a go at my iacv but i really no little about this so any guidance is great
thanks
