low idle speed

[jagrob]

hi all, what should be the idle speed? mine is about 600-650 which to me seems just a bit to low. am thinking about 700 would be better. any thoughts please. thanks.

If it doesn't stall in D, you're good.

car does not stall but can get close sometimes.

If it's an automatic, check your gearbox oil is not over-full. (over filling causes the lock-up to prematurely engage and stalling issues)

600-650 rpm sounds about right when it's in D.

gearbox oil seems ok. not been topped up since the low revs.
