Ok, soo here goes my long, boring, and annoying story.

So, prior to me getting the se on the road, I was DD amps 91 tII, just before I put it in the garage it started givin me the regular idle problem bouncing around and **** when accelerated warm up shuts off.

So, I say great I havnt really ripped the thing apart yet, I probly have a vac leak somewhere.

So, I pull the uim replace and ziptie all vacume lines and nipples, removed the iac and bac to clean, along with the emissin block off plates, replaced all the gaskets on the intake, injectors, orings and seats, tid, grounds and everything. Set the tps to 1000ohms and checked for dead spots no problem found put it all back together.

I KNOW there is no vacume leak

start the ****** up was good till the warm up system died down. Then the ******* thing started bouncing again

Shut it off and put it back in the garage bc I just wasted a week doing all this ****. Came home looked for some info in the other place. Found a lot of people having similar problems with the bac, iac and clutch swithes on the s5 causing the idle bounce

So, went back to the car started her up ****** started bouncing. So, I disconnected the bac, nothing, disconnected the iac, nothing, disconnected the clutch swich, nothing.

So, I got pissed and I said "well lets see if i disconnect the tps", disconect the tps and the ******* thing stopped bouncing and the idle went up so I readjusted the idle screws brought the idle down to a 1000rpm, rechecked the ohm reading on my tps, it was good. Plug it in and it ****** bounces again.

What the ****!!! Is the tps bad even tho it tests good? What should I try next?

Thanx,
James

 

bump

 

I have a S4 TPS that passes the ohm test, but is still a POS. If I put it in my car, it will make the idle bounce all over. It just started acting up one day, so I replaced it. No more problems.

 

you need to adjust it from time to time. Search for the procedure

 

if you've read my post you'd know that I have adjusted the tps numberous times gonna try swapping it with another one to see what happens

 

No, do the light bulb trick. Your checking resistance on 20 year old parts. The lights tell you really when the proper goodness is there
