I never cleaned pvc though.
What you can do if the problem still persists, disconnect your battery pole for like 10 minutes, turn car on (do not start yet), turn off, and then start and let car idle for a while. if that method dont work then you may need to get a consult 2 scan tool and re-learn the throttle.

makes no sense. a starter sells for about 200 foreign used.
less than 150 to do a brushes service, Theres no need to buy a new one.

So it sounds like the Solenoid or the contacts.

I set the odometer with a full tank and got approx 300kms.
I carried the car to clean out throttle body and injectors which were filthy!
The idle speed afterwards was crazy,idling at 1500rpm! So i carried it to a diagnostic guy who reset the idle speed to normal...
So far the gas burning ok-ish,im still watching to see if anything changes...

Now that you did that tune up, monitor driving again to see if there IS ACTUALLY an improvement in gas consumption. 300 is poor but not alarming. Monitor driving habits as well, like avoid heavy acceleration and avoid heavy braking during deceleration.
those engines are capable of making more than 380km.

Yes and Yes...and its about $400-$600 if my memory serves me well. I've never bought those sensors before, I only bought Cam and Crank sensors from Neal and Massy.
Oh I recommend buying sensors brand new (Motorist or Massy's). Buying a second hand sensor is a risk because you do not know the remaining life span on them.
