So.. I got the car back from the shop... turned out, the only issues with the idle were the injector seals creating the vacuum leak, and.. very dirty injectors. Nothing wrong with the CIS system, or wiring.. it's better now. Not quite right, but for now, I'm attributing that to still less than clean injectors.

Overdrive issue though.. seems the overdrive (M46) sticks on. In all gears. I think it comes on all by itself, but I'm not totally certain.. in the short term, I pulled the fuse for it, and I haven't noticed it coming on since, so I'm thinking it's electrical.. I mentioned it when I dropped the car off for the idle stuff, and he said they replaced the relay.. it seems the problem continues though..

Any thoughts on what I should look at with that? Might it not be electrical? Sticking valve? (I pulled the fuse when the car was stopped, so.. I don't honestly know if that caused it to not be on, or if it was because the car was stopped)
