Low idle

Hi all

Had the battery disconnected recently while installing a reversing camera,

Upon re connecting it and starting the car it seams to idle around 200rpm while in park almost getting to the point where the car shakes as if it's bout to stall, even when reversing its not like it used to be.

I have done the ecu reset a number of time and even went on an long drive to get the fuel consumption down from 26l/100km to 7.4l/100km but still when at the lights or in park it idles below 1000rpm

From memory it used to idle arou 1500rpm


Thanks

200 RPM :shock:

Mine idles at approx 800 after my tune (lowered for fuel efficiency) Used to idle around 1-1.2k.

I would be happy around 1k

What about reversing ? Does it drop ?
