Hello to all,
I have an 05 2WD Limeted and a small problem that came after i did a tune up. I changed the spark plugs, cleaned the throttle body, recharged the air filter, changed the oil, and replaced the fuel filter. Since then my Ex. idles high and burns through fuel more than before! When I come to a complete stop, the engine idles at 1k PRM's and then drops suddenly to about 600 but does it rather abdruptly. I have to replace the break pads because it takes longer to stop too! Any advise?
 












Because you cleaned the throttle body you may need to disconnect the battery for 10 minutes when teh engine is cold and do an Idle relarn for the throttle-by-wire stuff.
 






Thanks alot. I had no idea you had to do that, I'll try it and see how it goes.
