What up guys,

Ive been having a problem with the car as of late ( low rpm buck or hesitanticy under 2500 and around 25% throttle) bascally just leavin my hosue not wanting to wake people lol. . . I replaced the IAC with a new one off a mark 8 and it didnt correct the problem (the mark 8 should be the same minus the fact its harness plug is pointing towards the strut bar which was fun) . . . heres the next steps any input would be great !

- Coolent temp sender but i DOUBT thats what it is. . does it when warmed up too

- throttle body controler

Have you ever cleaned the IMRCs? When I cleaned mine, I also cleaned the TB, upper intake, lower intake, plates, IAC, MAF, and air filter. I dont know what helped, but I noticed a decrease in bucking/surging. It was really bad when letting off the gas in first. After all of that cleaning, it was noticeably better.

what plugs are you using? I think someone here had ill effects with a certain plug brand and the whole car felt like crap.

does it only do it when the engine is cold? How about warm startups? Like in and out of a grocery store.
