Throttle Body cleaner helped me with this problem. Worked great.

 

BE EXTREMELY CAUTIOUS if you do this procedure. READ THAT ENTIRE THREAD before you proceed. You'll see exactly what I'm talking about here.

A. it is not really the direct answer to the problem.

B. if done improperly, you could hydrolock the engine, and end up having to buy a completely new engine.


There are a LOT of topics on this, so rather than let misinformation spread I'll leave it with this.


Generally, this is the nature of the car, and the "problem" will go away on its own after a few days. The ECU can become confused, and cause this idle/stall issue. When it happens, DO NOT GIVE IT GAS. If you do this, it will only prevent the ECU from "relearning" again.

If, after several days, the "problem" still exists, try the map sensor whack. The procedure for this is listed in the FAQ at the top of this forum. Once you do that, reset the ECU, and the "problem" should be gone. Cleaning the TB is really unecessary, and won't fix the "problem".
