Idle RPM pulsing

[working4it]

Need everyones thought on this one. My04 S. Over time my idle rpm starts to drop and pulse when stopped. eventually it will throw a PSM and using Durametric I have P2186 Throttle body sensor. I cleaned the throttle body, cleared the codes and she purrs like a kitten. Slowly day after day she will start to drop rpm coming to stop and start the whole cycle again. it takes 3 to 4 weeks. I have checked throttle body, coils, plugs, fuel rail. I don't know what else to check?

Can't find code P2186 in the database.

Pretty much check/clean the electrical connections to the throttle sensor. Also check for air leaks (though that should be a different code).

It may likely come down to an intermittent sensor - that will need replacing.

Here is the code from Durametric

P2186 Throttle/Pedal Pos. Sensor/Switch D/E voltage correlation-implausible signal, test conditions are not complete fault is currently active and is not causing a DTC light.
