Car is acting up Video inside

First. the car was stalling out every so often when in stop-n-go traffic or idle rough as if it were about to stall. CEL would start flashing whenever it was about to stall then adjusted itself.

I unplugged the battery and to reset the CEL and now the car stalls out anytime I put it into neutral. I have to Rev the car while driving to keep it from stalling out.

The vid might take a bit to get up since I just uploaded it.

Did you read the codes? That's step 1.

Do you happen to have the A/C running while this happens?

Code is probably a too rich code or a random misfire.

Your IAC is toast. Replace it or try adjusting it as I showed you in the previous thread.

I had this problem too although I never actually stalled but my RPMs would drop to 500 and the car would shutter after reving like that.

Any reason you ask if the a/c was running? I notice the RPMs dip at idle when the a/c is on.

AC wasn't on. I'm gonna be taking it apart this afternoon to clean it and adjust it and if that doesn't work I got an appointment with Acura next Thursday and hopefully the IAC valve is covered under warranty if it needs to be replaced.

The extra load will cause these symptoms or if the symptoms always exist make the problem more prevalent.

What can be possible causes for the error codes? I've looked back into a few threads that stated EGR, the cat. Anything I should particularly check?
