so sometimes the idle is a little rough, not too bad but it seems to go away after i drive for a little while or if the car warms up. no new codes...just the ones posted in my other thread lol
any ideas?
i think it may have something to do with the MAF sensor or connector...if i disconnect the connection at the abc port on the sensor the idle smooths out. -- i rock.

Try some MAF cleaner. Does your car ever idle high when coming to a stop? If so, try replacing the PVC.
Mine was doing the same thing, and it has gotten better since I sprayed out the MAF. Mine is also idling high when warm and coming to a stop, and sometimes the rpm's don't drop when shifting from 1st to 2nd. I have heard this is related to the PCV sticking. I will replace it and let you know. --

noppe it doesn't idle high.
the roigh idle seems to happen under the following conditions
--cold start (many many hours of non-use)
-- semi cold start
dpesnt seem to idle rough after driving though.
i tried cleaning the maf sensor a couple times with maf cleaner. the situation kinda got better but its still there -- i rock.

Have you checked your coil packs for any corrosion? --
