Everything seems to be fine...I just was wondering if anyone could inquire about this.
A few days ago, my CEL came on. The code was P1151...something about lack of switching, etc. Only driving issues I noticed is the opposite of what everyone usually complains about. The typical thing is their cars idle too low and almost stall on several occasions.
Mine does the opposite at times instead. It will idle at 6-700 in park at its lowest, or at a stop light at its lowest..but it will most of the time (when it isn't running normal) idle too high, causing excessive speed (40+) when I'm not on the gas and in a city...which causes me to ride my brakes. My worst case so far was a few weeks ago when I put it in park and she was idling at 1600 (higher than my normal driving)..which had nearly caused me several accidents at intersections. Usually it won't go that high though. This was with the light off. Anyway, those are just the symptoms, and it doesn't do it all that often. This is caused by the engine correcting for a perceived lean condition when there isn't one.
Back to what I was saying, the light came on and it spat out that code (my rambling was the typical, and my symptoms)...the thing is, I didn't do anything and the light turned off today. I wouldn't say anything normally, but it did this once last year as well. What do you guys think? Is there something I should check? Or should I just call it good until it comes back on again?
