lumpy idle 2005 gt

  Top of Page

hello everyone
I have just encouraged my daughter Rachael to join  your forum
my name is john.she has owned her car for a year or so travelling about 12000 kms .She and her partner dan love the car but since buying it they have had a lumpy idle the dealer tried to fix the problem by flushing the injectors and replacing the spark plugs. I have just taken it for a blast it goes well but the clutch seems to bite at the top of the travel but you have to press it to the floor or else u crunch the gears .i suggested it may have a restrictor in the clutch line but because she hasnt aworkshop manual we dont know  the car has 60 odd thousand k`s on the clock.the car still has  a lumpy idle it feels like a dodgy engine mount -or a harmonic balancer problem or something to do with electrical throttle controller when at idle air con off it feels as if the air con compressor is kicking in and out i  have mentioned about ecutek reflash what do you think? sorry about waffling on but its annoying the hell out of her we hope you can help thanks

a few people have had the lumpy idle and the cause hasnt been the same in each case .mine went away after my 100k service so im guessing mine was the spark plugs but i have read that there is a fuel injector upgrade pn 16600aa220 that subaru was doing under warranty
