Newbie here. I've searched the forums about this problem since it first started. I just need things to be loud and clear for me, considering I'm quite the newbie with my SC.
About five months ago I noticed an odd honking noise coming from under the hood everytime the car was idle. It always occured when the car was under 1k rpm. Now things have changed a bit. Everytime I start the car the idle jumps to 2k rpm, after about 30 seconds it will drop down to 1500 rpm, then down to 1k rpm. This also happens everytime the car idles and the honk is much louder now than ever.
So, from what I've read on the forums, it seems I have a couple possibilities here? Replace the IAC, is that it? Check for vaccuum leaks? Something about a torn seal in an "air control valve"?
Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
