ok, here is another dumb problem. after warming the car and drving around for a few miles, when i shift, lets say from 2-3 while going at 3000 rpm's the thing jumps 300-400 rpm's sometimes when i presss the clutch.

and another thing is sometimes my car has a mind of its own O_O............

by that i mean after it jumps and i leave it in 2nd gear the car just keeps on going, it seems like its giving it self gas (when im not)

dose anyone know what the problem is?..........and or how to fix it

thanks

 

and sometimes the rpms dont even drop below 1................the only thing to fix it is to turn the car on and offf..............but evantually it comes back

 

maybe youre throttle cable is getting stuck somewhere...

 

thats what i thought, it was a little loose

but i fixed it

 

Clean your IAC(idle air control)

 

personally i really dont think that is the problem

it only happens when the engine is warmed up.

 

if you already fixed the loose cable, go ahead and shoot some thick penitrating lube down the accelerator cable housing, and on the butterfly on the throttle body.

 

ok guys now im going crazy, i cleaned my idle air control, and now the freakin service engine soon light is on.

so any more suggestions

but cleaning the IAC did the trick with the rpm problem,

thanks l_shizzle_l

 

now clean the MAF sensor and the TPS sensor. and run codes.

 

im stupid but what is a maf and TPS sensor?

thanks
