Idle Problems After Air Reg And Aac Cleaning.

[starscream_r32]

Hi All,

Having a problem with the car...

I thought my Air reg and AAC needed cleaning because sometimes the car felt like it didn't idle right.

Upon taking our the air reg and aac they were both in mint condition (old owner probably cleaned em?).

So i put everything back and now my car is not idling right.

It used to idle at about 900rpm once warmed up.

Now it's idling close to 2-2.5k even when warm/hot.

The car is also shaking alot.

Anyone able to help asap?

Thanks.

check you connected all the hoses and wires/plugs back up properly.

My guess was also going to be to check all the electrical connectors

quadruple checked.. everything looks like they are in and fine..

took the car for a drive and it wouldn't go... just rev...

kinda misfiring/missing as well.. with no go...

arghh

hey all,

still having issues with the car and need to see if anyone else has any input.

the idle issue has been fixed.

however i am still having the issue where the car is shaking like hell and when i took it for a drive no power/ won't boost etc..

i believe a cylinder is not running? or something along the lines.

anyone able to suggest what the issue could be?

the only thing i did to car was:

1. take off throttle body

2. take off AAC to clean

3. take off Air Reg to clean

and put everything back on and all these problems occured!

idle fixed now but lost cylinder? WTF?!

car shaking could be a result of leaking vacuum hoses, probably not recirculating correctly atm. Look for those small skinny hoses that attach to the intake pipe. They could be damaged/not properly connected. Worth a try

If you have stock ECU/Nistune, give the ECU a reset, disconnect one of the battery terminals, pump the brake pedal to discharge what's left and see if it still does this after the reset.

[starscream_r32]

have checked all cables, connections, hoses etc..

ecu reset also done.

stumped as to what could be the issue.

frustrating the hell outta me!
