DTC code
P2007
Intake Manifold Runner Control Stuck Closed Bank 2
Technical guide
Symptoms
- Check engine light
- poor/rough idle
- loss of low-end torque
- engine surging
- hesitation during acceleration
- noticeable power loss at highway speeds
- possible misfires from a rich mixture
- reduced fuel economy.
Probable causes
- Failed IMRC actuator or solenoid
- faulty IMRC position sensor
- mechanical failure or binding of the intake manifold runners (often from carbon buildup/coking on the flaps)
- blocked vacuum lines
- wiring or connector problems in the IMRC control circuit (including corroded actuator connectors)
- rarely a faulty PCM.
Diagnostic steps
- Connect a scan tool, retrieve stored codes and freeze frame data.
- Clear codes and test drive to confirm the code resets.
- Visually inspect the intake manifold, IMRC actuator, vacuum lines and wiring for damage, disconnection or blockage.
- Check for applicable Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) for the vehicle.
- Test the IMRC actuator solenoid and position sensor resistance with a multimeter against manufacturer specification.
- Inspect the runners/flaps for carbon buildup or mechanical binding and clean if necessary.
- Test continuity and resistance of the control circuit wiring between the actuator and PCM.
- Use a bidirectional scan tool to command the actuator and observe whether the runners actually move.
- Replace the failed actuator/solenoid, repair wiring, or repair the manifold runner mechanism as identified.

AI here is a librarian: this page shows only what mechanics confirmed, or says “unknown”. It never suggests a diagnosis — MECCANIC interprets the code, never your car.
