Car shudders at start up

hey guys, i know i been posting alot, i fell off the fourms for a while.

when i turn on the car (AC off, stereo off, lights off) the car revs up like normal but then shudders, RPM's drop low for a second and then back to norm...


does this happen to anyone else?

dealer has no idea and blames it on my sub... but my stereo isnt even on.

ill try to shot a vid of this tonight and post it up

Hm It is funny they blame it on your sub, they could of blame it on your intake more than your sub. But again incorrect installation of the sub can do it too. But why it did not do it before? That would be my question to them.

How do you clean your intake?

When you cleaned the TB's, did you remove the harness/connector mounted on them?

Good. As long as you didn't, then you shouldn't need to do the idle air learning procedure.
