rob-2 Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 I had/have a similar problem I've had it there three times for the problem but they did fix the stalling; they said there was a stripped wire on the bolt what ever that means. But my car has a kinda rough idle and when my car kicks the fans into over drive it does the same thing as you I wish the dealership would stop giving me the run around and fix the dam problem already. When I took it to them they said well the engine is getting more load from the alternator which will cause it but I'm having a hard time believing that's how it supposed to run, I thought vacuum leak but I don't know where to begin to look . The RPMs do dip for a second when the fans kick on. You'll also notice it idles 'lumpy' because it's a subaru turbo'd motor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't just drop for a seconds they kick on the idle drops way low they turn off it jumps back up to like 1500 the kick on again the idle drops low again. Then its really really rough idle but I notice it goes away after I get pissed a floor it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
