hey guys since spring is coming time to fix my **** lol. im doing a tune up (plugs, fluids, cap and rotor) and since im under the hood would like to tackle another problem. at about 1400-1600 rpm anywhere in that range, my rpms fluctuate on its own, whether im driving or idling, or giving it a bit of gas in nuetral. it does this. my engine light its telling me my O2 is bad ( new one on the way) and my IACV. well i took off the IACV cleaned it ( it was real dirty) and still this happens. any suggestions? thanks in advance.

 

i had the problem you had, replaced my iacv and problem went away. i at first cleaned the iacv but it didnt work also.

 

ok i guess id have to order that from acura right? im going to change O2 and see if check engine goes away, if not, iacv is out. thanks for the response.

WAIT. Before you go to Acura and waste money, try ebay. I had both problems. The first time I had the idle problem I also threw the IACV code, cleaned it and the problem and code went away. A month later I threw an O2 sensor code, bought a universal O2 sensor on ebay for about $25, installed it and the problem and code went away. Funny coincidence how both problems happened only a month apart

 

k well i will take it off again, maybe i missed something, or it could use more cleaning. i'll check my vaccuum hoses and change the O2. yea i dont really want to waste money at acura, and i have a good feeling its not going to be cheap.

 

I just bought a used one off of someone here on h-t for about 25 bucks. Going to acura will hurt your wallet.
