  • Rough Idling

    My car just startd=ed to idle rough.....and the service engine soon light just came on. It drives fine but at stops it sounds like it kinda is idling rough. Im gonna take it to autozone and see what hey say but wondering if yall have any thoughts. I have 56000 miles on it and ever since I hit 55 its been acting weird.

      Probably needs a good tune-up. Spark plugs, etc.

                What could be the issue is if you check the coolant sensor. Check if it is operating correct if you add a jumper wire to the sensor and your motor idles different you may have a poor coolant sensor. Also if the SES light doesn't turn on in the morning its because your engine is overcooling and that may be the reason why you have a poor sensor. My car has also done that but I'm fixing it in college since I'm taking automotive classes.

                    I wouldnt be surprised if it was the IAC sensor that was bad. Just my guess though. See what the code says.
