Default pulsing.....

umm its odd.....the idle isnt sparatic or anything unusual in that manor, but when i'm going down the road and let off the throttle (coasting) the car will jutter then go back to normal and then jutter some more than go back to normal and conmtinue (no rythem) anything that can be contributing to this?

Might be your throttle body sticking a little. Clean it out.

Well either way it cant hurt. You take off your upper intercooler pipe to get access to it. Lube up the butterfly and clean out all the carbon deposits. Basically just make sure it moves smoothly.

Well i guess the other thing that could be causing it is your BOV. What BOV are you running?

Does the GS have a iacv ( sensor ) like the GS-T does. I remember my old gs-t i had a few years back use to do the same thing and it was my IACV. I'm not sure if the GS's have this sensor so hopefully one of the guys will chime in.
