I don't think its a sensor. I think its a vacuum line theres two vacuum hoses that run under your washer fluid normally one is connected to the turbo the other one should be capped that worked for me.
Do you have your check engine light on? and is the error code 505 cause that was my problem.

be careful you can clear the check engine light real easy its probably supposed to be on.
sorry didn't realize its not yours but if it is an idle problem at least its not too serious.

You can clear the codes, but there is no way that I know of to block the codes from coming back. If the CEL is supposed to be on, it will be....the only reason I can think of getting out of it would be to open it up and remove the bulb.

When I would reset mine it wouldn't come on for another of couple days (normally after a long trip).

That's because your problem didn't trigger a code until a couple of days later. It doesn't stay off or any certain amount of time after resetting the system. I've had codes come back immediately after resetting the system.
Killa, you should be fine to drive it like that. Just when you get it, go to Vatozone and get the codes checked to see if there are any in memory that aren't showing up at the moment, that might help you to diagnose the problem a bit.
