6mt idling speed

Tony B · 03-29-2013, 10:51 AM

What is your normal idling speed (engine/transmission fully warmed up) for the the 6mt car, in neutral, foot off the clutch?

Mine is now much slower since the last dealer visit, and I am wondering if it is a software mod, to reduce emissions, or whether something else is going on.

Thanks in advance.
