Idle issue?

[driftartist]

did you have to pay a diagnosis fee in order to have them look at it or was it all covered under warranty?

[driftartist]

and also what is the main cion hq number? all i keep getting is the generic cust service number

I just picked my FRS up yesterday and I have already noticed this. All I had to do was lightly put my foot on the throttle and it stopped. My first thought was throttle blade bouncing, since me barely placing my foot on the throttle fixed it, but I guess there's a fix in the thread already.

It's all covered under warranty

I'm at 1600 km now, and had a good lengthy drive around town last night - I didn't experience the issue a single time (even when trying to reproduce it). It may be the ECU just learning (and me learning).. and the engine breaking in.

Naturally, I'm going to continue monitoring the issue... but I think it really just might be new-baby panic.

If this ECU learning thing would be happening it would be mentioned in the manual ...so people don't freak out!

I'm over 1800 miles and I'm still getting the problem. No missfires lately, and no cel yet, but it's not going away.

I wonder if they will refund the fee in the event that it is determined to be a warranty issue.

Go to another dealer then. I was able to take my Toyota and honda to the dealership to look at my concerns. And I was never charged any fees. Even though they found nothing wrong.

if they find nothing wrong though that may suck to pay for nothing.

Open your hood and look at the engine, mine has an inconsistent idle so I looked under the hood, on my car you can see the AC pump engaging for about 2 seconds at a time every 5 seconds which is why it idles weird, The AC isnt on but for whatever reason it turns on the pump anyways. That seems to be my issue and I couldnt find anyone else saying this in the 17 pages (I did not read them all)

Do you have your climate control set to "Full AUTO"? If you do, the AC will kick in to dehumidify the air occasionally, even with the "AC" button off. Says so in the manual.
