2000 Accord V6, 95000 miles, everytime you put the vehicle on Parking or Neutral the RPM goes up to 1000 to 1500 revolutions, and it goes back and forward, it never does go to its normal 800 rpm. Anyone ran into this before? any ideas???

Thanks.

i've run into it on my car, but it's an 86' accord... a little different as far as engines go, but i'll do my best.

The problem i had was with the fast idle control valve. Have that checked out.
Also, make sure that you have no air pockets in your cooling system. That can cause it also.

My friends eclipse had this problem to. His car's problem was worse (from normal idle to 4500, 2500, then died ) but it was his ECU.

It was the EGR and what happened is that is was replaced, but they did not replace the gasket, therefor it was acting up. Thanks.

THANK YOU for posting a solution. That is VERY uncommon here, which takes a lot of value away from the archives.
