Re: 2003 Rodeo Runing rough
sure, get the codes read as above. i'd assume misfire for a particular cylinder or random misfire, from your stated condition.
so at least while waiting to get the codes read, pop the hood and have a look around. all wires fully seated? hoses? etc otherwise, wait for the codes to narrow the possibilities -- unless you have a 3-cylinder engine. . .

Re: 2003 Rodeo Runing rough
Coil pack is a possibility. I just went through this last weekend. Went from perfect to really rough in one startup. I started pulling plugs when it happened to find which cylinder was missing. I have a '97 which has a coil over each individual cylinder.

Re: 2003 Rodeo Runing rough
An '03 would have ION sensing too so the proper spark plugs would be critical. I dont know if that year would suffer from the IMG problems, could be something to look at.

Re: 2003 Rodeo Runing rough
Mike, do you have the 3.2L in your 2003? Do any work on it recently? As indicated, a *flashing* CEL always means a misfire. Most common cause on the 2000+ is installing the 'wrong' sparkplugs. Like Gizmo says, could be a failed ion sensing unit. If that CEL is accompanied by a reduced power light, it could also be a throttle by wire issue (if it's a 3.2L). Something is amiss as a failed MAF, O2 sensor, etc.. wont cause such a drastic issue on a cold start.
To Joe the hyjacker (kidding!), you are correct. There is no IAC on the 2000+ 3.2/3.5. I beleive that code is telling you the idle speed is too low. You could try a throttle body cleaning, but this might require a reflash of the PCM. Joel
