this has been happening ever since i bought my car..its a 2000 dc4
when i start my car, the idle will jump and drop about 3 times then idle perfect..

explained: when the car starts, the idle will jump to about 800 rpms, drop down to about 100, back up and so on..about 3 times then it will idle fine.

my car has a CEL, more than likely bc of bad o2's (haven't bothered to read codes). i thought it was a problem with the motor itself, but when my motor blew and was replaced, same idling problem. any suggestions..?

i had the same problem with my gsr, but it would do it longer....i had put it in the shop and they told me it was the fast idle valve...so i changed it myself and it worked...might be that

i think 100 rpm the car would die out

ok maybe not THAT low, but damn near dying..

where did you get the fast idle valve..?
and where is it located..?

Actually, my old DA had this same exact problem and it WOULD drop down that far. I asked alot of people and they all said it was my IACV, but I sold the car before I ever had a chance to fix it.

check your iacv. i don't think 00 have a fast idle vavle.

not to come off as a dick, but you are guessing on the o2 sensors causing the CEL....the first place you should start is obviously with the CEL then go from there
