bgambino Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Hey guys I am about to put my 2004 wrx (2.0) on the road I took it out and was idling it while I washed it I was not paying a lot of attention but then noticed it was not idling low...not normal Checked and tach was reading about 1800 RPM Had reached normal op temp for quite some time hit pedal a few times...would not drop Any input would be much appreciated I was thinking maybe the coolant temp sensor?? I don't know where it is of if there is a way to test it No check engine lites but.... 1st...my battery was dead for a week..,,,2nd....I only idled it for 20 minutes and took it for a 5 minutes spin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Does that year have electronic throttle or a throttle cable? If you let it sit a while and cool off does idle return to normal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgambino Posted August 17, 2015 Author Share Posted August 17, 2015 Hey fairtax. I don't know on either score The throttle body is a little covered by the intercooler....will have to take a closer look I will try starting it tomorrow after work (its at my moms house) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
