Idle problem


Ok so here it is I have a 2004 rx8 with 120,000 km on it changed plugs wirescoils all the typical things mentioned in this new member forum but still havea erratic idol when I put the car in to gear 1st 2nd 3rd revers doesn’t matter idolsfine in neutral about 900rpm. When in gear it bounces between 900 and 1800rpm. Otherthan that the car runs great. One more thing the front O2 sensor is bad couldthat be the problem?

Anyone have any ideas of a solution?

Yes, replace your front O2 sensor. It is critical to a stable idle.
