Service

Idling is very rough, struggles to keep a stable idle, even at times chokes and dies. Suspect it is the one or more of the following. The MAP, Fuel Injection Throttle Body, Coils and possibly the battery. I'm leaning on the MAP or throttle body. Car was sitting for two weeks and battery died, once battery was charged the car was giving the symptoms and having the issues described above. The car then had a service and the spark plugs were replaced as well at the Kia outlet. I also checked the Fuel Injection Throttle Body, cleaned it as well as the MAP. Not much carbon buildup at all. Had disconnected the battery and did a few idle and drove a bit to see if it would reset itself and idle correctly, unfortunately it didn't.
