After my rebuild, i find my car "tugs" at me when i am at a light or in traffic. I tend often to shift into Neutral or Park to give me foot a break. It looks like after my car warms up, in the drive gear it is usually around 900-1000 rpms during idle.

Is that too much, or should i lower it a little?

 

Thats right where mine sits. Do you have an A4 or an M6?

 

Automatic. I guess A4 does sound cooler.

 

well the stock idle should be around there, but when in drive i think it is suppose to lower a little so you don't have that prolem, not positive though since i have a m6

 

Where is park in your 6 speed because i can't find it on mine lol just had to give ya crap

 

1st gear with the car shut off Duh! ....yeah I realized that a little later. I wasn't paying attention when I first read the post.

 

No... that's not the stock idle speed for an A4. The stock idle speed for an A4 is 550rpm in drive and 650rpm in neutral. The stock idle speed for the M6 is 800rpm. Allow for the fact that the stock tach reads 100-200rpm high, and you will see 900-1000rpm in an M6, but not in an A4.

Since he has the HOT cam, he must have had it tuned. What did the tuner set the idle RPM at?

 

wow, never knew that, i knew it was lower but 550 seams low in drive, never been in an auto 4th gen, all my buddies have m6's
