k a few months back i changed my idel spin motor. was fine. ok, since the past week when i start off in the morning the idel is around a bit lower than 1000 rpm's. when i drive about 10 kms i hear the fan coming on a bit too often as well as the idel goes up. when i stop after a run of say 10 k's (very normal city driving) it idels near 1500 rpm's and when i started its around 1000. if i drive it harder like put it into manual mode etc the idel after 10 k's is a lot higher than aunty diasy driving. now this is worrying me, secondly i feel the car is sluggish and hardly any power , the temp gauge says its normal but yea with the fans coming on almost every traffic light. what do u think is wrong?

Do you have a mivec controller???? if you have just check the cylinder settings and others.

I'd start by checking your ECU for any error codes...

check the resistance of your ISC when the engine is hot as well! I found out my ISC was fine when cold, but when hot, one of the coils were screwed.
