    Default weird idle rpm

    at almost every traffic light when im idling my car always sits at a different rpm ranging from 400rpm - 1000rpm this happens on a daily basis.

    Could anyone tell me what might be the cause of this

    Thanks

    Vacuum leak, check all the lines on the engine for leaks/splits, especially the one coming out the drivers side of the throttle body with the 90 degree bend.

    Try wrapping electrical tape along it, overlapping as you go.
