The car always idles high when first started. Your main concern should be idle in neutral being around 700rpms. Yeah the rpms will drop lower when coming to a stop, but it should come back to resting speed. Sounds normal to me.

There is a sticky in this forum on how to raise idle rpm. May want to try and raise it a little. First I would try and reset the ecu. Warm the car, disconnect battery, plug back in, start car, let idle for 10 mins without using any accessories or pressing gas. Turn car off. The idle should now be set.

hmmmm...well when u start ur car in the morning, engine is still cold...so rpm at 1200 is normal.

after the engine is warmed up, rpm goes downt o 700-800.

when cruise in neutral, rpm goes down to 1200 then it goes then 700-800.

that stuff i said above is normal.

what does ur car do different from above?
