Default Little Rought Idle

Hi All,

I have a little rough idle

When I am in park, I can feel every 5 or 10 seconds a little bump"""

Always trying to get my girl happy ( my car) so if I could resolve the problem it would be great...


Thanks all

Happy New Year 2011!!!!!!!!!

What does your RPM's show? Should be sitting at about 800-900 RPM sitting in park.

Do you notice your RPM's moving up or down during this noise? If at all possible take a video from inside your car so we can hear the sound it's making. You said your having a rough idle. The first thing that I would check would be a loose vacuum hose somewhere. Second, how many miles are on the car? It could use some new plugs and wires. The car is most likely having a misfire somewhere and I would suspect a tune up is in order if your above 60,000 miles.

Might want to clean the throttle body. A little ridge of crud builds up where the butterfly meets the bore. Be sure to use the newer "plastic safe" stuff. Do NOT use the old fashioned carb. cleaner. You probably know this, but better said then omitted.
