Hi all,

Can anyone tell me if there is an easy way to see if the swirl flap servo from the intake manifold is knackered? The servo is off the car as it has been relocated for easy access (swirl flaps removed and plugged).

Car is still in limp mode and I presume the motor is stuffed. When I start the car the motor arm doesn't move but gives a lot of resistance if I try to manually turn it. When the servo is removed the arm seems to turm with little resistance and naturally tries to return to a retracted position.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,
Tim
