Hello again. Ok, the dealership replaced the ais motor cuz they said it was bad.

If i have A/C on ***During acceleration... say rpms between 2-3k, if you hold the clutch down...and dont let it back up...the rpm needle drops like a rock to 0...and the car dies almost every time***

So i took the car back to dealership...they said they had to adjust the ais motor... now the rpm needle still drops..but doesnt hit zero...

HOWEVER, if i dont have a/c on...the car idles at 1,700 rpms! Thats crazy..i told them '...they said thats the way it has to be on turbo cars...or else it will stall between shifts. that cant be rite...before they took out the ais motor..it wasnt like that.

any ideas?
 
When I have the AC on my rpms rop a little but not that much. Sounds like something is putting a huge drain on the engine. What happens if you just let it idle and then put the ac on?
 
if i just idle and leave a/c on....rpms almost normal... bout 1,200....then if i turn a/c off... idle goes to 1,700!

the service guy said this was the only way to make my car not die on itself between shifts. that cant be rite
 
I have a 1G... but I notice when I have my AC on and the car is at operating temp.. at an idle my RPMs drop. Sometimes to the point my car stalls. Unfortunately I dont have any suggestions on this.. I am sure if I raised my idle speed by adjusting the BISS it would fix this problem, but I dont think this is the answer.
