djdelirius Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 I have a 99 Accord EX-VL V6, AUTO, 91k. Well I bought a new car about 2 weeks ago and the honda hasn't been started in the past two weeks, well I just went out there a little bit ago because I was wanting to drive it around a little. Well when I first started it she started ok but after about 3 or 4 minutes of letting it warm up(it is also about 25 degrees here and snowed earlier) it starts reving to about 2000 rpm then back down to 1100 or so rpm and just keeps on doing that over and over. When I put it in drive you can feel it trying to pull away when you have the brake on and you can hear this kind of clicking sound thats not normal for it. Do any of you guys have any idea what's wrong with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kastigir Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 Sounds like a bad IACV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chv Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 I don't know the Honda engine well as I just bought a Honda, but I used to have an Audi that used to have similar problem. I would suggest checking on the temperature sensor on the engine block which informs the board computer to control the idle. If this doesn't help it could be the idle regulator on the intake valve (if Honda has the same way to control the idle). In any case it might be easier to check the error code with the dealer. Let me know what was the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
