Default What r u A4 Guys idling at??

My car idles at 800 when fully warmed up. I don't think a4's are suppose to be that high at idle in drive. I know that m6 cars are, atleast that is what i believe i seen. Just curious if there is a problem. I know that i would have a check engine light on if i was idling to high but i don't so i assume its fine?

For the mods that matter, true duals, lid, 3600 stall

500 rpm give or take 50 rpm.

Yours seem a little high with your mods (considering you don't have a massive cam or anything).

Go get a proper tune.

Mine is around 500 at hot idle, my P or N is the same thing. I wasn't aware it was supposed to idle at a different RPM from D to P or N .
