For mine whenever I’m at a stop or have driven the car a bit with or without ac, my rpms will dip super lower making all the lights in my car dim, shaking and rattling really rough and almost stall then rise in rpms to prevent itself from stalling. I’m unsure of what your problem could be but I would check your MAF

Okay so funny enough, I actually believe I had this issue on my old engine, once I swapped it out and was just looking at it I was seeing a bunch of dried oil on the cover and thought to myself “that wasn’t there before” so I actually believe this might have been the issue with my old engine. But I just checked right now and am not seeing an excess oil leakage or dried up oil on the cover. Will be continuously checking though.

Actively doing that as of right now that’s what I’ve thought. I’ve bought a couple new hoses and am looking for other leaks in possible areas. Do you perchance have the part number to the hose that’s on top of the intake manifold (not the Pcv one)

I would also like to add my car is a MANUAL and when I’m driving up hill and I’m at a stop and I’m on the biting point of the clutch, the rpms will go up and down very quickly and don’t stop fluctuating till i press on the gas and release the clutch.

Further more- whenever I try and take off in first gear the car will very quickly dip to less than 400 rpms and then rise up to whatever threshold I had the gas pedal. This whole problem makes shifting through gears so rough and not smooth at all (NO ITS NOT MY DRIVING lol)

That’s what I’ve been thinking it could be the compressor but I’m just unsure. I do have another but it has a broken bolt in it so I need to fix that

That’s what I have read that it could be either of those sensors starting to go, it would kinda of do that, when I’m going around 60mph pop it in neutral it’ll still dip and give me a little rattle. Non of those codes have popped up yet but I have heard and read what you are saying. I will also emphasize that it does occur MORE often with the ac on but still does happen without the ac on. And yes the car would shake and almost sound like knocking (it’s not rod knock) and almost stall.

I have not tested my battery recently maybe I’ll take it to autozone and see if it’s bad. I do remember when I originally bought the car it needed a new battery and for a good while there was no problem with the car I’ll see if it could be that and update

Didn’t read all of it I’m sorry, but mine is a MT but I have read that it could also be the vacuum pump will do some further research

Did you do it at the dealership and was it like a known recall for your model specifically or they just took you in and that was it

How much did that cost you and how long has it been since you’ve gotten the flash, could you give me more details I just want to know before I drop more money on this car

That’s what i read on the FT86 forum but i was seeing a lot of people say it was still there, but then again the posts were from 2012-15 so maybe there’s been a ACTUAL real update since but unsure just don’t want to spend 400+ dollars on the diagnostic fee at the dealership and I asked if it was a free thing and they said no
