Erratic Idling

As many people as possible, tell me what the symptoms of an erratic idle can be.

My car is idling erratically, up and down around 2 grand back down to 1 grand. The throttle sticks a bit and I pulled off the TB and the plate is sticking itself, no the sensor. When it is very rainy out my car makes a noise and drives like the clutch is going bad (just replace under 16,000 miles ago w/ ACT and new tranny) I know it can't be the clutch because it makes the same noise and revs the same when it is "idling". I ve cleaned the entire intake system, intake utbe, TB, valves, etc. and still erratic idle. Possibly a sensor issue, but no check engine light. Im stumped.

What all can cause an erratic idle?

Re: Erratic Idling

Did you clean the iacv valve? Try bleeding you coolant and if that doesn't work then try to screw your idle screw in then back it out at 750 rpm.
