Why it happens
The ECU stores learned idle values. Disconnecting the battery or cleaning the throttle body throws them off until they're relearned.
How to fix it
- Check the battery is fully charged and terminals are tight.
- Follow the manual's throttle and idle relearn steps with the engine warm.
- Check intake boots for air leaks.
- Read and clear any stored codes.
