I think that I've got the same problem. The rpms steady at 800 but the car groans and stumbles at idle and under power at take-off. Feels like the choke is on full - if it had a choke. Another comparison is the feeline you get when the TCS comes on during traction slippage in the snow. That chug-a-chug thing. The mechanic immediately started talking bad plugs, tune-ups, etc. without first troubleshooting. Any ideas anyone?
How many miles do a set of plugs last in a V6 anyway? Mine only have 38K on them. Thanks.
Joe
