[QUOTE="Russie, post: 256507, member: 4537"] Anxious, I face quite a similar problem. There were times when I started my car with the air-cond OFF, the car was shaking, as though the engine wanted to die off (really low idling) and when I switched on the air-cond, I noticed the idling went up to about 700rpm, thus stabilising the idling. Like what some suggested here, it could be the ICV. My ICV has a hairline crack and I was told it would affect the idling. Not sure how much is a new ICV or one from chop shop but I believe the matter is still manageable for now. K Keep us posted on your latest outcomes. Cheers [/QUOTE]
