My car fixes itself...

[Huskymaniac]

sometimes!

Case 1: Last winter was my first winter with the car which had spent its life in TN and GA. When the weather got cold I noticed the idle would bounce a little when I started it. It would eventually settle but it would undershoot and overshoot the desired idle a couple of times. This happened more if the car had been driven a couple hours earlier versus sitting overnight but wouldn't happen if, say, I just stopped to get gas. Well, this winter the problem seems to be gone. I did get the valve cover gaskets and PCV changed late last winter/early spring. Regardless, somehow the problem seems to have fixed itself.

Case 2: Yesterday the "Brake" light was on when I started the car in the morning and stayed on until I got to work. I never use the emergency brake, as I rarely park on a steep incline, and it still seems tight. When I got to work I turned into my parking space (right turn) and the light went off and stayed off.

Now, if only the rattle noise in the front would fix itself and stayed fixed, as well as the #3 O2 sensor that comes on about once every 3-4 months.
