  1. It started about a week ago.....everything seems fine ....it does more so from a cold start.

    Battery is new and reads 14.2v running.

    Car is kinda virgin with only 80k miles.All grounds are like new condition with no apparent corrosion.

    Hope this helps.

    thanks,

    Can you provide more info? How long has this been going on? What does the car act like while its appeared on the cluster?
  2. Mine idles up and then down and then and so forth for about 20 cycles.

    I don't think this by design.

    Don't know if this helps at all but on my 97 SC300, in the mornings when I go to work and the car has sat all night, the RPM's run high, between 1 and 2k until the car starts getting warm. If you take off immediately its a high enough idle to roll the car. I think it just does that to warm the engine quicker. Simple solution: Let the car warm up for a few minutes before driving. That's what I do anyway..

    You're right. This is normal. It's similar to the old manual choke. You can drive off after less than a minute except in the winter. I let it warm up until the revs come down to 800 or so before driving off. Less stress on the tranny and gives all the fluids a chance to pressurize throughout.
