Idle with AC
Hey gents,
I noticed when my AC is on I get a higher idle and at a standstill the tachometer shows about 4 tics higher then it would without the AC on. Also I feel a bit of a pull-forward sensation. Anyone else experiencing this?

I just wanted to provide an update.
I was away for a few weeks and just before leaving I went for a ride and noticed the experience I had went away. When driving with the AC on and coming to a stopped position my RPM's were now consistently at 500 RPM. After driving around a bit I noticed a climb back to 800-900 at a standstill with the AC on. I will visit the dealer but I'm trying to see if there's some trigger I'm overlooking and also if any of you are experiencing the same thing.

Hey Jerome,
Looks like long time ago you had this idle issue, do you remember what was the problem? Looks like I am in the same situation, any tip will be helpful.
Thanks
