evilfish5000 Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 No thats normal for it to do that. My zs has done this a few times and normally its related to the engine temp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nico. Posted March 30, 2010 Author Share Posted March 30, 2010 thought it might be but with this being my first car i not got any past experience with cars so it kinda got me worried at first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harweyko Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 It`s normal that cold engine is reving cca 1100-1200 rpm, just after it is hot enough (temperature of coolant more than cca 55-60°C) the revs are slowly falling down to cca 700-750 rpm ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
