ix20 Fuel Consumption Starting Issue

Hey! That sounds familiar. I have a Hyundai ix20 as well, and I had similar issues last year – higher fuel consumption and struggling to start in the mornings. I initially suspected a vacuum leak somewhere, but never thought about the accelerator pedal module. What makes you think that's the cause?

My diagnostic readings indicated irregular signals from the throttle position sensor, which pointed towards a potential fault within the accelerator pedal module. Given that the module directly influences the control valve, I surmised a correlation. Did your symptoms align precisely with mine, and did you experience any idling irregularities?

Yes, almost exactly the same! My ix20 was also idling strangely sometimes, like it wanted to stall. Honestly, I messed around trying to clean the throttle body, checking for air leaks, the whole shebang. Eventually, I just bit the bullet and took it to a workshop. They hooked it up to their fancy computer and confirmed it was the throttle valve messing things up. It's likely the module is gone. Saved me a ton of headache!

I appreciate your insights. Based on your experience, I will proceed with a visit to a trusted workshop for a comprehensive evaluation. The repair cost was 205€. I am grateful for your assistance in guiding me towards a resolution.
