Could be a dirty throttle body, vac leak, or a defective idle air control valve. The computer adjusts idle speed by controlling the amount of air entering the throttle body via the control valve.
Is the check engine light on ?

I have a same problem. need help

It could be the fuel pump. Thats what I would think. Hope this helps!?


Please rate solution - Thanks.

a plugged fuel filter can cause this also a defective fuel pump, the other part that can cause this is called a MAF sensor.

First, change the fuel filter, and make sure the lines are good. Check the intake manifold bolts for tighness, check all vacuum lines. Best to have it running, wiggle them around and listen for a hiss. Lastly, change idle control sensor, if the other suggestions don't make a difference.

factory imobilliser has cut in by the sound of it ,you will have no spark as well at the plugs if iam right

have you tried changing the fuel filter

need the code #

Hi Jerry,
Is the idle surging?? going up and down, while at idle?? and not beeing nice and smooth, or the RPM's just drop down and the car dies?? You don't want to touch any of the factory settings on the throttle chamber aka idle screw on the throttle body. That's factory set for life. You may have a IAC -AAC valve problem which a "air volume control valve". Buut let me know first, what you find as far as the "surging up/down goes", but it doesn't die.
