My wife's 2001 Camry Solara Convertable (I posted here thinking that since there are more Camrys and the problem is likely not unique to the Solara) with a V6 & Automatic. Around 91K miles and all factory services have been performed by Toyota dealership.

It has begun running roughly after starting - either after sitting overnight OR for an hour or so. On a couple of occasions, it would quit and when restarted, would not idle properly unless the accelerator was depressed and the idle brought up to 1500 RPM or so for a breif period (30 seconds or less). The idle is at 400 RPM - which seems low to me but I am not sure what it should be and the accuracy of the tach. I plugged in a code reader and no codes came up.

I read elsewhere about a dirty idle control valve in the throttle body with essentially the same symptoms on a 1999 Camry - but it didn't state which engine.

I als had a similar rough idle problem with her previous car that was the result of an electrically actuated engine damper/mount - but that would not explain the stalling - so I DON'T think that is it and I am not sure the Camry even has one.

So - anybody experienced this or have any ideas?
