RedM Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Jspec TT Auto: When driving home this afternoon I was driving very gently. Not really much boost, gentle acceleration etc etc. I noticed that the revs seemed to drop quicker when off the gas. Moreso than than I clearly recall from previous driving. Almost to idle speed at about 10-15 mph and even at 30 the revs seemed low (about 1000rpm). I don't know if it's normally like this as I don't usually watch the rev counter when in slow driving situations. I know the car kind of adapts to your driving style so was the car chilling like I was? Obviously being off the gas causes revs to fall and being an auto it seems like they are closely related but does this seem like an issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrew7 Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 I had a similar thing today, in that sometimes my tickover was a bit lower than normal when I stopped (600 instead of 750 for a while)... Maybe something to do with having the A/C on (the fan takes a lump out of the charging circuit on full blast) with the A/C pump at full blast, plus the fact that the air was very dry today (combustion not so good as on humid cooler days).. I'm auto BTW..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted June 9, 2006 Author Share Posted June 9, 2006 Shut it, you tarts. I'm serious. The revs normally wind down with the speed of the car, not drop quickly. If anything they should go up slightly as the cars drops down the gears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UltraFlynn Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 nag nag nag...I left home to get away from people like you That's funny. And true. I'm finding that my revs are very low at the moment because the wife has snatched the Supra and parked it at mid-term at Stansted airport for 5 days. Bloody typical!
