strange idle
Hi all, this topic may have been covered before... but the seach function isn't working, so I am posting my question anyway!
My car when in 1st gear under low throttle will idle so low that the car shakes a bit. It will happen when creeping along in traffic, backing up - just whenever it's in crawling along. Revs drop too low, and then it catches itself just before it sounds/feels like it's going to die.
This problem is exaggerated when the a/c is on - it wants to do it even more.

my car just starting doing this as well. Right after it turned 30k miles, and the check engine light came on. I reset the ECU and the check engine light shut off, but it still has a rough idle.

I had this problem a couple of weeks ago. If I revved the engine, and took foot off accelerator, it would then fall to around 200 revs! May or may not be the same problem.
However, the Honda garage found that there was something unplugged at the fuse box, which regulates the current flow.
