I have a 2003 Vibe I recently purchased and sometimes not always ill start my car and my engine will Rev a 1800 - 2000 RPM's. When it does this it will persist for awhile and after it has been running awhile it will stop. Can anyone help me or let me know what to look for?
Thanks for the quick response i am going to check the Mass airflow sensor tommorow. Two things though i have read that different products are better to clean (spray) the MAF with was wondering what you recomend. Also, I am not sure what you are refuring to by CEL'S. Its a 2003 with around 61,000 Miles on it. Also it seems to act up more in the cold if that has any relevence.
A CEL is a Check Engine Light. But it Revving high a startup it normal for these engines until they get warmed up a bit.

I agree w/Keithvibe...~1800rpm is pretty normal for a morning or cold-weather start. This morning my garage was -4F and my '05 Vibe rev'd at that for 3-4 minutes before slowly dropping down to 1K (I don't normally let it idle that long, but it was freaking cold).
