Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Suggestion
Check the fill tube and u may want to test the vac with a manometer to see if the aos is still good.
Leading evidence: 'Check fill tube and u may want' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Check fill tube and u may want' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.

Have a fluctuating idle so I figured I would clean the ICV but, not finding it on this one.

Suggestion
Inspect your oil filler tube carefully for cracks...unhook it from the air box and move it around some to inspect.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Have a fluctuating idle so I figured I would clean the ICV but, not finding it on this one. Expected it to be on the drivers side of the throttle body. Alas, nothing there. With the electronic throttle, does the ICV reside elsewhere?
Thanks
Before you do anything else, do an e-gas calibration. Turn ignition to position 1 (not start), wait 60 seconds, do not touch or move the accelerator pedal, turn key to off. Then start like normal. Inspect your oil filler tube carefully for cracks...unhook it from the air box and move it around some to inspect. Make sure the oil filler tube cap is on tight.
Doesnt take much if a leak to mess with the idle. U still may feel good vac at the cap and still have a leak.
i do agree that an e-gas recal should be the first step
There is good vac at the filler tube. Removed it and the car acted like it wanted to die. Ill be doing the calibration tip tomorrow.
I have no white smoke. Can I presume the AOS is sound?
Thanks for assistance
You can not tell anything from (appears to have good vac). U need to buy a manometer and put a fitting in the oil cap and test. U need to see the long and short term fuel, you need to see the map voltage. The car will tell u what u need to know...reading and understanding the outputs is a skill that comes with experience. Once we see what the car has to say some people on this board can help.
If u dont have the tools or the skills to do this all u r doing is wasting time and money.
