Diablo Idle RPM ......
Discussion
Hi All,
I would be interested in other owners comments on their Diablo (5.7 ltr) Idle RPM speeds.
Mainly due to time constraints and partly due to a flat battery (I have Optimate Chargers but just hadn't connected one!) having charged the battery over night, this morning I started the Diablo for the first time since it arrived (1st week in Feb.)
Idle RPM when cold were 2,000 which seemed a little high?? ..... I would have thought c1,500 -1,700 RPM more the 'norm'? and then settling to c1,100 -1,200 ish RPM when warmed-up ??
I was wondering if in owners experience the Idle RPM is slightly high at 2,000 RPM when cold or is it the 'norm' ?or if owners find idle speed tends to be higher if the car has stood and not been started for a longer period of time, especially if the battery has completely discharged and had to be charged ahead of starting?
I let the car run for c3-4 minutes and the engine speed did not slow from 2,000 RPM so with that and the phone ringing I shut it off......
Any thoughts?
