Hello everyone,
I did some searching but was unable to find an issue exactly like mine. I have a 2015 Corolla S with the CVT and 92,000 miles. I have been having an issue with a low idle for a few months now. The car will drop RPMs while stopped at a light in drive. The RPMs will drop to as low as 500. This causes a very annoying vibration which is almost constant. This happens when the car has had time to warm up and regardless of if the air conditioning is on or off. As soon as you shift the car into neutral or park, the rpms climb back up to around 800 where they should be. The car is very smooth while driving. No dash lights illuminate because of this issue. I have had the car for over 2 years and it used to idle very smooth.
So far I have tried in the past month:
-Replacing all 3 engine mounts (because of a banging noise when the car hit a bump, idle did not get better or worse after this change but did fix the noise)
-Cleaned the throttle body and MAF sensor
-Replaced the air filter (wasn't dirty at all as it has been changed every 10,000 miles)
-Ran direct injection safe fuel cleaner (has been done with every oil change)
-Checked for any blockages or debris in the air intake system. (didn't find any)
I always run top-tier gas from Shell or Exxon.
If anyone has any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it, I really like this little car but the vibration is driving me crazy.
Here is a link to a video of what is happening. Sorry if it isn't very clear it was recorded on my cell phone.
Thank you all!
