    update: Yesterday afternoon it seem to work ok again. I only worked on the iacv, so I still think that must be it. Maybe on saturday I still had a sticking action of the stepper.

    Hi, I new here, but immediately have a small question. My 2000 KV6 Freelander yesterday suddenly tries to increase the revs to about 1500rpm. Which means that I really have to keep my foot on the brakes at a trafficlight.. Today I had a small peek under the hood and found this little tube...
