That sounds pretty much like what I experience. When the car's been sitting overnight, if I don't put it into reverse but just sit there after I start it, it'll stay at 1500 rpm for longer than my patience lasts. I guess I just have to get used to the thing jumping when I put it into reverse (and then again when I put it into drive a few seconds later)when it's cold. Rob |
