I've got a friend with a 1997 Acura CL with the J30 V6 that's throwing code P0505, IAC System Malfunction. The car's in good shape, not low mileage but not too high (I don't recall the exact number). It's serviced regularly but not obsessively, so I think it's probably a fair assumption that the IAC valve probably just needs cleaning, and at worse needs to be replaced.
I haven't seen the car yet but I've sort of offered to help him clean it out or replace it. I assume this isn't a big job, but I haven't seen the engine yet so I don't know for sure. Does anyone have any input on this?
