Any 2016s still experiencing rough idle?
I was sitting at Sonic today with the car idling. It's always had a rough idle, but today it almost died. The engine pretty much missed and then came back.
I thought this was one of the early problems for this car that got fixed later on. Anyone else with a newer BRZ having this issue? |

Thanks. But those TSBs do not cover MY16 cars. Except for one and it seems to be more for ATs. Mine's an M6.

Mine does that. I ran out of time during my last oil change, but I told the dealer we would be addressing it at the next maint. op. It doesn't do it all the time, just once in awhile.

It's a common problem that it dips to about 500rpm. Its "normal". Open Flash Tablet fixes it.

I had that as well and thought it was weird. Stopped after a few days and didnt think about it. I ended up getting a stage 2 tune so i havnt noticed it anymore.

My 2015 doesnt do that. The worst it does is dip close to 500 RPM when the AC compressor kicks on, but it never sounds like its about to stall itself.
