Question
2002 Dodge 2.7 v6 idles rough but elicits no codes, nor does the check engine light come on.  Dealer cannot find anything wrong with it.  Any ideas?  Thanks.  Tim

Answer
If the dealer has looked at it and cant find anything ,theres not much i can tell you.You would need to define "rough"?.misfire?.slow idle ...high idle?..lumpy?...if it doesnt show any codes then it must be fuel ..did you change the filter?Do a intake leak check?..look for vacuum leaks at the air boot.
