Idle hop/falling off
Please help me, i need to resolve this problem? ASAP
I own a AP1 S2K and this problem has been annoying me since i got the car last August.
I need help with the idle hop or falling off, not sure what its called.
I turn the car on, and it idles a little high until it gets warmed up or i turn the a/c on
and the idle hop acts up really bad when the a/c is running.
Car also seems like it wants to stall sometimes and when the car is stilll cold after about a minute of driving if i put the car in neutral it stalls.
let me know if this doesnt make sense.
Does anyone know off hand what i can do to fix this?
I would appreciate the help

CEL = Check Engine Light
I had to replace my IACV about 6 months ago and it was doing something similar to what your car is doing. It will pull a code and turn on the CEL if it is bad.

I will be at the shop tomorrow. If you come by we can run your codes if you have any and look at it for free. It may be just a bad vacumn hose but it does sound like th IACV.
Raven should be by for a Idler pulley and to have us do the once over before he leaves.
Open 9-6.
