Idle death.
My car Likes to slowly die at idle in gear, Worse cold than warm but sometimes unexplicably when warm as well.
If Im sitting at a stopsign or something, Occasionally it will start to drop RPM slowly untill it just sputters and Dies.
Personally, I think it may be the module going South, But would like some confirmation. I am convinced that it is indeed electrical Because the other day, with the car idleing in gear, I went to roll down both windows at the same time, and it died, lol.
Any suggestions welcome. The car runs fine with a little pedal in. Idle is set 1500 Park ~ 1000 In gear, I know thats too high but thats another story
