Re: rough idle

Man, I have the exact same issue.. I've replaced a few bad sensors and done alot of work to my car, but none of them were actually the culprit, I'm still dealing with this problem. I was within a few points of failing my emissions test too. So I definitely know how you feel.

Good luck getting it fixed. It's always the little things that will seem to drive you nuts trying to figure out too.
