Get the codes pulled first, that will give you an idea where to look
Doh! you're right. i just wanted your opinions before i went to the dealer. codes said bad signal from mass airflow (or something like that)........wire was loose from the accident but didn't show up until i drove it for a bit. Dealer fixed it under warranty = cool.

This sounds kinda like the same problem I had when my mass airflow sensor was wet. Do you have a CE light on?
Good call JD. you woulda had me looking in the right place buddy, thanks.


Not a problem.

Well Im sure there is some way to bypass it so the CE light goes off. I would look into it because thats the last thing you want is to NOT know when something seriously is going on with your shiz.

Mine is doing the same thing. I triedeplacing the TPS, that didnt work($28)and the idle air control valve, that didnt work either. But I would try those first. I need to get a code next.
