The idle speed is computer-controlled, and there is no provision for adjustment. I don't remember the spec for idle speed, but with the engine warmed-up I'll guess it is around 650 RPM.

Idle speed
Bob,
Thanks,
The problem I am having is that the car is hard to keep still at redlights, it wants to move forward. Keep in mind I just had the tranny replaced with a guaranteed remanufactured unit. Is there a solution that I can try other than sending the car to the stealer?

Just to close out the story, I finally got a check engine light. Code said I needed stage 2 oxy sensor. Replaced it and all is fine now.
Thanks
Thanks
