Whats correct engine ide speed for 2.5 CRD
I think my idle engine speed is set too high. Its close to 1000rpm and when i drive off and put the gear into 2 and in slow traffici have to continuously brake as the car moves too quickly without me even touching the accelerator. Like the revs are rather high for that gear if i make sense :mad:
How many revs should it do in idle/neutral Cheers |
Can't find the exact figure, but it should be between 790 and 870 RPM (worked out from some of the requirements of diagnostic tests)
Regards Richard |

The idle speed can't really be adjusted, it's a software function and not a screw like in the old days.
Not sure if it could be caused by the accelerator pedal not fully returning to rest though. Regards Richard |
My 2002 2.5CRD runs idle at ~900

I remember I have a shot of my idle rev (also manual) :)
BTW I also used had the habit to drive away in gear 2 with manual diesel engines but I found it was not the proper way with the heavy weight of the Voyager. With heavy cars like this you really need to use the 1st gear, especially with a little cargo in it. |
