I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Re: Idle Problems
My car is definitely fixed now. I reset the codes and started it up. it idled a lil rough but I just let it go. the code came back almost immediately but it was the O2 sensor high voltage code. After a while the surge stopped and it idled fine. I took it by AZ and there was only one code and that was the O2 sensor code. I think that if I get it tuned again, then it will go away. I think that when I took it the first time there was the injector that had the pinched o-ring and so it wasn't getting the full boost....so it shouldn't be to much to have the tune fine tuned....thanks again to Josh and Matt for your patience and help...hopefully other car peeps can learn from this....I will definitely send friends to this website....Holla!!!

Re: Idle Problems
Just to give an update. I have been driving around for a couple days and haven't really had any issues. sometimes on my way to work the car will surge ever so often at red lights and stop signs, but, only for a second, then drop to normal idle. when I leave work it doesn't do it at all on the way home. (dont know what the difference is here except maybe outside air temp). This morning It was really cold outside. I started the car and let it run for 15-20 mins. While I was inside I could hear the car idling really rough....as if it wanted to stall but wouldn't. It was a somewhat steady Idle, a few surges here and there, but for the most part, a steady idle, just sounded low. As soon as I left the driveway, when I would push the gas, the car wouldn't go, except for a quick jolt when I pushed the gas all the way down. So i came to a stop sign and the car started surging. I turned it off and let it sit for a min, started it back up and drove to the gym. When I got to the gym and tried to let the Turbo Timer run, the car just shut itself off. After about 30-45 mins in the gym, I Left the gym, drove to work and left the Turbo Timer on when I got there, and it idled perfect...This afternoon, drove home it was perfect...I am pretty sure the Seafoam is still in the tank, I haven't gotten through that what was in the tank when I added it....I know this reply is a little jumpy but I am just writing my thoughts....I still have the O2 sensor high voltage code and I believe that's the only code....
