Pete M Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Could be that your IAC (idle speed controller) is stuck in the warmed up position. :dunno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rnobles Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Same problem here...i was thinking sensors too, but i swear i read on here that the computer uses presets until it gets warm, then uses the sensors. Is this true with the 2.5? :dunno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 some sensors are used at startup (TPS, CPS, etc), others are not (o2, etc). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
