2007 DX AT & AC Intermitent Rough Idle

Hi Guy's,

My Civic is already having issues at 12,000 miles.
Like the title said, Intermitent Rough idle.

The problem just comes and goes from stop light to stop light.

Not sure the cause. I thought idle was controlled by computer
control and sensors.

Thanks in Advance,

clean the idle air control sensor (its the piece bolted to the throttle body with coolant lines going into it). during initial breakin first 10k miles or so, everything gets very dirty and carbon all over the intake hardware, so try to clean it up and then the computer will correct and run like new again. chances are after that you wont have to clean anything for a long time several yrs.

Thanks for the advise.

I'll give it a try and let you know.
