Anyone know any scrap yards where i might pick up a 2nd hand one,mechanic told me today that it needs to be replaced and would cost round 800 mark new:( but only 100 second hand:).....he is finding it hard to locate one himself so thought i would post here,i dont mind travelling,any ideas?

The main throttle body on that houses a few parts in one. These include the fuel injector itself, the idle motor, the MAF etc. They cannot all be faulty (well very unlikely). If it is the MAF this can be overhauled. Which part is needed?

Edit, I jumped to the conclusion that this is the 1.0 3 cyl

be jesus diagnostic u have me there,its a 1.2 litre anyway....so basically ur saying it should only be maybe 1 or 2 parts that makes up the entire unit thats faulty? Maybe hes takin advantage of me...

What I posted above was aimed at the 1.0 as per my edit but still holds mostly true for the 1.2

I am not saying he is taking advantage, just seems strange to change the whole lot.Ask him to try and source just the faulty part.

Any ideas roughly what each part would cost?
