above 1.5k rpm!? tt's VERY high.. hope u r talking about warm-up idling (which probably last for 15sec) n not normal neutral idling..
If not, do send in ur car for mechanic to adjust ur idling rpm lower

Mine is ard 500 after warm up for ard 30s. It used to be ard 1k RPM but after grounding and puttinng PMAX seems to drop

mine only 600rpm

i didnt really notice what is my rpm. e normal is abt 600?mine is a sx auto

when u just start up for SX..rpm will rev at 1.5k after 1-2 mins it will drop to slightly less than 1k.....during idling, definitely less than 1k....

Dear all,

When my car is idling, I do hear some rattling noise from the exhaust when I am at the back of the car. It sounds like the exhaust shaking/trembling.

Are yours quiet? Thanks!

I guess the rattling noise from the exhaust applies to all auto & manual forte. Those who have change their exhaust tip, maybe you will like to share with us whether you will still feel this rattling sound.

Anyone have the exhaust rattling issue while car is idling?

Thanks for sharing. I am SXA as well. Will ask them to check during 1K servicing.

I went 5K servicing on Fri - when I asked the service technician if the idling rpm could be adjusted lower, they said that it is not possible to adjust as this is preset by the factory.

His advice was to let the vehicle run idle for 3 min at start up before moving off (abt 1.5K rpm). It should drop to abt 600rpm after that.

Heard that nowadays cars dun need much "idling" time before moving off. Just make sure you dun let it go beyond 2k rpm due to better engine technology. Dunno how true. In any case, many of us park at MSCP, by the time u turn and turn out of your car park, it may be 5min already.

For those who let your car warm up, usually how long is your normal waiting time.

My current car i just drive off straight away after 10-20 sec.
