At idle, in DRIVE only, RPMs go up about 200-250 for about 6 seconds, EVERY 6 seconds. Its pretty strange. It will idle at about 600 RPMs (normal), then I'll hear a "tick" then the RPMs jump to around 800-850 RPMs for about 6 seconds. Then it will go back down to 600 RPMs again for about 6 seconds, then the "tick", then back up to 800-850 RPMs again for 6 seconds. Over and over again. Its almost like when the AC is on and the cooling fan kicks on and off causing the RPMs to change, but the AC is not on when this is happening. In park, it stays at a constant 700 RPMs.
I know its not that big of a deal but WTF is causing this? Its almost annoying. Has anyone seen this before? I tried searching this forum for this particular issue with no luck. I've got a 00' with a 4.0, 159K miles, and it runs fairly cool (185ish-200).
Thanks in advance.
