low engine revs.....

Post by heha »

I really noticed this the other day that when Im stopped my revs drop pretty low less than x1000.(around 500) the car seems fine and all but should I be concerned. And no i dont have the air cond. onand no I have no engine mods of any kindwe've had the car for almost a year with about 33500kms on it.

This is quite normal!! And perfectly fine.Usually it will be around 1000 before it warms up then drop to around 600.You should be fine as long as its smooth. If its sputtering at all then you might need to get it checked out.
