I just had a new ACT clutch and starter installed on my 2004 RX8. Now when I'm at a light my idle is rough and sometimes stalls. I have to rev in neutral to keep her running. Any ideas? Thanks in advance gents.

They probably disconnected the battery to work on the car.

The ECU is relearning the car.
It will go away after a few drives.

Turned out to be a loose hose on my Racing Beat intake...all's well. Thanks!

Oh I was gonna tell you to do the "20 brake pump" that resets things that may cause ecu issues. I've had similiar problems

They installed the clutch in backwards!

they did the same thing to me!!!!!!!!! i just got my car back from getting an act stage 1 and the intake was loose as nuts

^huh odd 2 ppl have the same problem.

I think the techs are in a hurry to get to happy hour. Tightening bolts and hoses is not on the top of the priority list.

^was wondering the same thing! Yeah they def cannot miss happy hour that would just be wrong...

I'd like to meet your mechanic. I'm gonna bet he is Irish and you put the car in the shop at 3pm....

i'm sure they loosened up the intake to tilt the engine enough to get the top bolts for the trans. that's what i do on certain cars....

^yes read the code at Autozone or advanced auto parts for free and let us know so we can help yall out

I also had a new starter installed...they may have knocked something lose during the install...just making a guess.
