funny egr idle thing>?

I got the AK back from the Acura service center. They did the emissions EGR thing service bulletin...

I pulled up to the house and left it running this morning and noticed the idle goes from about 650 to 300 back to 650, then when the a/c kicks on it goes from 800 to 300 and back. Real slow increase and decline.

Any ideas?

I smelled Antifreeze while I was getting out of the c ar today and see a small puddle under the car. i can't find where its coming from. Does the egr work have anything to do with coolant or is the egr located near any coolant.

EGR has nothing to do with coolant I believe... Find that leak though... could be as easy as split hose, or could be as bad as a cracked freeze plug... or worse...

Get new hoses, check your coolant level. Have you had a coolant flush lately? Its a GOOD idea on our engines, it keeps them in peak condition. Cooling is one of Honda's trademarks so be sure to keep an eye on it.
