2005 CRV LX - Rough Idling

[terry1966]

Hello,

When I start my car, there is a rough idle...not too bad, but I feel the vibration on the steering wheel. I just had an oil change, fuel injection cleaning and transmission flush. Still the car has a rough idle. Can anyone tell me where I can look? I've read about IAC cleaning. Do I need to check my spark plugs? Thanks for reading! Your comment and help will be much appreciated! :)

My CR-V vibrates on idle primarily in D and when the A/C is on I thought this is a common thing on the V because of the unibody contruction.

Thanks, Dave! But I don't turn on my AC. But I do notice that happening a bit on our Ody. I'm now thinking...could it be the fuel filter?

Gen 2/2.5 Vs don't have an inline fuel filter. They have a fuel strainer/screen located inside the fuel tank. It is not a maintenance item.

If your V's idle is truly rougher than normal, you really should try cleaning your throttle body/IAC valve. It is a prime suspect. :)
