Name:Yashiv
Location:South Africa, KwaZulu-Natal, Glencoe
Vehicle:Opel Astra
Year:2005
Modification:none
Problems:Im getting a knocking noise coming from the throttle body area of the engine,it seems like it is coming from the part next to the throttle body,dont know what it is called but it has two plugs on top of it.I read that another person experieced a similar problem and he was told to clean out carbon from the place on the throttle body where the small breather pipe fits, but the problem I'm having is that i cant see any small breather pipe,I can only see one breather pipe which I dont think is the same one because this one is big and this person said that you should use a needle or wire to clean it out.Where exactly is this pipe and will this solve my problem.My vehicle is a 1.6 sport and is running very well,I'm having no other problems except this noise.
