CM Intermittant High Idle

Every so often my 2003 Z06 will have a high idle. Usually about 1100 rpm for a few seconds then will settle down to a normal idle. I have checked for vacumn leaks, and cleaned the throttle body. I had it in to the dealer and they checked for codes that could cause this and didn't find anything. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Harris

Check the codes yourself. The instructions can easily be found with a search.

I'd look for an air leak. Especially if you changed the airbox.

I have that too..

I don't know what it could be as I changed out the air box and did a ton of other stuff and can't figure it out...

I had it tuned for the cam so I was just assuming it was an affect of the tune...

If you happen to find the cause..post it up.

I've given up although in the morning it sounds like I"m racing to get the hell out of the house cause my cold idles even higher!
