When I come to a stoplight, the idle sometimes drops to like 500 rpm for a second before catching itself, almost like it wants to stall. It never did this before the calibration. I took it to Dyno Star Workshop because a couple of guys at the track recommended them, and the driveability everywhere else is fine, smooth cruise and no flat spots. I’m just worried this idle thing might be a sign of a vacuum leak or maybe they didn’t adjust the throttle follower settings properly? I called them and they said to bring it back so they can check the logs, but it’s a bit of a drive for me and I’m wondering if this is something that settles after the ECU adapts for a week or two. Anyone else had a similar experience after getting tuned? Should I just go back immediately or give it some time and see if it learns? Really don’t want to seem like an annoying customer if this is actually normal. Author Posts Viewing 1 post (of 1 total) You must be logged in to reply to this topic.
