Hello Everyone,
I am new to the forum. I have a 2007, manual trans with 90k miles and just recently it started to have a rough idle. Would guys give me some ideas as to what it could be? I haven't had anything serviced in the engine since purchased in 2012.

Thx
 
A check engine light is in your near future then, which should be telling. Usually a rough idle has to do with spark or a bad sensor. I'd inspect the spark plugs and test the coil packs to start.
 
Okay, lot's of people don't agree with this.
Vacuum a Seafoam and see if it improves.
Aw forget the critics, you got nothing to loose!

Any update after the seafoam? :)
 
Sea foam is a great product. If used correctly, it can rid your engine of a lot of carbon and mucky build up.

I’ve rejuvenated an old 318 with it, that I believed was in the rebuild list.

Worth a shot.
