I have a stock 2016 Civic EX-T, and have had an issue for several months where the car idles at about 600rpm and feels very rough while in gear with the A/C turned off (at a red light, for example.) I've researched it on this forum (there are lots of threads on this topic) and couldn't find any real solution, so I finally brought it into the dealer today. They agreed there was an issue, and ended up keeping the car for a full day but couldn't find anything wrong. Eventually they decided to do an "idle relearn," and I was skeptical, but it actually seems to have resolved the issue ($155 later!) I had to replace the battery last Spring, and the dealer says that could have messed with the ECU in some way.
Now the obvious issue is, what happens if I need to disconnect or replace the battery again? Does anyone have any information about how to perform an idle relearn on these cars without bringing it back to the dealer, maybe from a service manual? There is some information online but it is inconsistent and I'd love to hear it from some reliable source.
