Just a couple days ago my 2007 25,xxx miles, started boging down at idle. While sitting at a light the rpm's will bounce around almost killing it. What do you guys think this could be?
at normal idle i'm around 700rpms and the needle will bounce as low as 300rpms...
One other wierd thing happened the other day while driving it. I was in manual mode and at a stop lighht. I looked down at my P-R-N-D (3) display on the gauge cluster and i noticed all the letters had white shadded boxes around them, and then the boxes would go away and come back. It was stuck in 3rd gear also. when the light turned green the car truck stayed in 3rd and the engine would go up and down like i was steeping on the gas then letting up, kinda like when you're trying to get someone to race you. It did this about four times. I put it back in manual mod and everything went back to normal. That's the only time this happened and i couldn't make it do this again (not that i want to, just incase i have to for the dealer).
But the rough idle seems to always be there....
Haven't had time to take to the dealer yet.
Mods are volant CAI, Diablo tune (which is off the car for now), BT catch can (i emptied it yesterday and samething happening), 180 T-stat,
That's all the engine mods.....
Thanks
