Every single cb with this issue ( mostly the 2014 models ) started good as gold but something changed over time and we never saw any wear or dirt in the valve body, so what gives?
And i don't know of any member who did not have success with a new iacv, to me it is the lack of control from the ecu,
( hence the software " update " ) i think the older iacv's permanent magnets have degraded to the point where they no longer control the iacv correctly.
A lot of times this has happened after the engine has been very warm, permanent magnets lose magnetism if the temperature rises, the iacv is in a hot place and that is why i have come to this conclusion.
You may be in a unique position to evaluate the " magnetic torque " difference between an old and a new one firsthand.........
Haya Doc.
Hiya, Max!
