Hi All,

Did a couple of searches and saw the Surges/Fast Idle thread, but the TSB fix for that issue is for Autos only. I have a 6MT and anytime I start the car (cold start, although it's 50 in my garage) the car idles at about 1500 as I sit, then I back out of the garage without giving the car any gas. As I pull forward in 1st gear, the idle surges up past 2000 and sticks there for a minute. Lately I just engage the clutch wothout giving gas and the car pulls forward, but the idle shoots up and sticks at around 2300. If I push the clutch in it hovers there and then settles down.

Anyone else have this? I'll take it in to see what they say, but I won't be able to recreate it once the car is warmed up. Thanks.

 

Normal. You got to let that car warm up for a bit man. It is reving higher to warm the engine up quicker.

 

Yup, happens to me too. It also happens to my Mustang GT and that is AT.

 

Mine does the same. Nothing to worry about.

 

yupp same thing here.. let your car sit and warm up a bit longer

 

Normal! It's still a "cold start" at 50 degrees....that phenomenon might calm a little in the blistering summer heat but otherwise the RPMS behave like that.
