Default 2007 Idle problem
I have a 2007 Ram 1500 that started surging when at idle. It goes up and down from 600 to 1500 rpm's when cold. I can now feel it surge up and down when driving. My mpg have gone down a great deal. Any suggestions?

Had that problem in my Durango last year turned out to be the Throttle Postioning Sensor.About $30 at parts store and very easy to replace.

I would think it would be the same issue with your vehicle.

Yep, replace the TPS and should be back to normal.
