    *IACV Problem [UPDATED PICS]

    i have an idling problem... my EG likes to idle between 1.5K and 2K...

    i cleaned my TB and it didnt do a great deal...

    i went out and bought a 12mm spanner to clean my IACV and it was almost impossible to take the hoses off it...

    after almost killign myself taking the hoses off i looked at the lil metal tubes that come off the IACV and into the hose and it was completely covered in rust... and a chalky slime...

    i cleaned out the filter in my IACV which was clogged up with heaps of hard black Sh*t... put the IACV back on... leaving the rust i couldnt get off on there still...


    what has happened???? why is there rust in my hoses???
    and it looks like its been developing over a long period of time...

    i did not drive the car for about 3 months... im not sure if that caused anything...

    i figured that my radiator has rusted up and my hoses have collected rust from it...

    but theres so much slime... looks like that light coloured mud...

    can this be fixed???

    also would my water pump need changing????


    b4 i forget... always on really hot days my car overheats...


    wat type of costs would be involved in fixing this issue??? and should i take it to a dealer to fix while i have my major service or is there somewhere good i can take it to????



    if anyone can help i'd like to know wat i can do...


    sounds very expensive... :'(
