Yaris Idle Point

[mark_n]

Is it just me, or does the Yaris seem to idle at a low RPM. Mine seems to idle about 750RPM ish.

Thanks

Mine's somewhere near the same,

my previous car sometimes used to idle at about 500rpm

[Nizan]

they do idle very low mate and can flutter around a bit too depending what electrics you have turned on.

750rpm is totally normal for a modern EFI engine

[Ryan1985]

Mine idles nearer 500RPM I think!

[Kerby]

yeah mine is between 500 and 700

[mark_n]

Thanks very much. That explains it then.

[Blue84]

Mines around the 700/750 rpm too :D

[T V O R]

600 to 650rpm on mine...

[Yaris-Nut]

That sounds about right ... cos the Yaris is smart and it saves fuel in traffic jams! :D

Why would you want it idling any higher? Then you'd sound like fool who's forgotton to take their foot of the pedal! Durr!

Hi

Is it normal to rev below 500 rpm when AC is on? It happened few times on my TS.

[Yaris SR Kid]

below 500rpm if its not spluttering or anything is fine mate

[HowardL]

Mine idles with one segment showing above the solid band, what is the actual tickover?

It's not spluttering but rather slow rattling and this rattle sound just happened once. When I turned the AC off or pressed gas pedal a bit it worked normal.

[Yaris SR Kid]

One big bar is 500rpm

If it happened once mate shouldnt be a problem

[olobolo]

The rattling started again recently and it does not happen ocassionally now but almost every time after I drive a while. It rattles only on idle revs and stops when I drive or rev a little bit. Any suggestions?

i dont think its anything to worry about, mine does this probably half the time. if it does worry you, i think you can take it to toyota or another garage and they can raise the idle rpm

Does it happen when you have A/C on? On mine it happens only that time.

[yazburner]

my yaz idles at 1 big bar, then one little bar, is that ok or should it just be one bar??

[jay dh]

it doesnt matter how many bars, as long as its under 800rpm. mine happens without A/C, A/C takes some power away from the engine which is poss why yours is doing it then, nothing to worry about

Thanks for the replay - I'll leave it as it is now and I hope it won't get any worse. ;)
