runs rough at idle

My car just randomly runs ruff when it sits there and idles. Sometimes it surges a little and other times it runs normal, especially when I take it to the dealer to look at it, they didn't find anything wrong. I hooked up my autotap and I would get a current misfire on cylinder 2 and 3, but never stayed in the history or set the light off. Anyone else's car do this and have the dealer actually look at it instead of sending you out the door.

Yea mine does the same thing, it did make the light come on once and the code said the same as yours, the guy reset it. It still does it but the light hasn't come on again. There are a couple of tsb's out on that problem, I took mine in today and they told me that it would mean pulling the head and cleaning each valve manually to fix it.

dealer will reset the PCM (reflash it). it got rid of some of my issues. also mine qualified for the recall/campaign to replace teh injectors. my fuel milage is better as teh tech told me the injectors were leaking.

Had the hood up the other night and noticed that the TB was loose. I guess when my car was in the shop last they didn't tighten it up all the way. That is real great workmanship from the dealer!!!
