I�ve seen some people recommend a vacuum test to those that have seen similar issues too?

Maybe I need to get smart on the idle control valve and/or plugs/coil change too?

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ok, so my car is doing this thing where it starts and runs like a dream. Then I park and when I come back to my car and start it again, maybe 30 min later, it idles at ~1k rpm, then drops and sputters, catches itself (sometimes) or on 3 occassions it just stalled. Sometimes if it is doing the idle bounce, if i try to pump the gas it sorta sputters a bit. I�ve been reading threads in here and have taken it to AutoZone for a scan (no codes) and no lights. I just bought a Bosch MAF (will hopefully be here in a couple days. Maybe I need to get smart on the idle control valve and/or plugs/coil change too? I�ve seen some people recommend a vacuum test to those that have seen similar issues too? Thoughts/ideas? Thx! It drives great and has never stalled at a stop.....knock on wood.

POST 2Original post

You might want to move this to the turbo forum? if your coils and plugs were bad it would mis-fire under load/boost, its harder to fire a spark plug when the cylinder is under more pressure than at idle when there is virtually none.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks man...you are correct! Reposted in Turbo forum! Thx
