01 CLp idle problem ( idling issue )
I have an idling issue with my 01 CL. I've been searching the forum a lot, but haven't found anyone with the same problem that I have. Now I thinking of taking it to the stealership for a diagnostic.
... So I need this forum's help before I go crazy...
I'll try to describe the prob:
1) The rpms surges from 800rpms to 900rpms only in drive if my foot is on the brakes at a stop light. And the car lunges forward every two seconds
* the car does this when the engine is cold and also after a long run on the highway.
2) When I start the engine in the morning it does not act up in park, reverse nor neutral. With my foot on the brake and I move the shifter to D5, D4 or D3 this idling issue immediately starts. But down in the " 1<>2 " slot its fine. It weird.
3) I also have this issue when the car is in shiftable gate.
4) There is also a little hesitation during acceleration, when I'm trying to accelerate smooth and slowly.
--- To solve the prob I've done the following:
Changed spark plugs
Drain and refill tranny fluid
Change engine oil
Clean IACV with brake cleaner
To no avail because I still have the prob.
Please help!!!

No i'm not throwing any codes
That's true, it could be a electrical signal not being sent or a valve not opening.
Yeah i've heard of instances where people have cleaned their iacv and the problem is still there and after they buy a new one and install it the problem goes away.
I brought it to a mechanic and he says its most likely the iacv, because my car is idling 2 low. So i'm gonna bring it back to him saturday.
