Hi all

I just bought a FD with most of the stock config. I really enjoy driving it but just one thing I would like to fix else it ll be perfect! I just wonder what is the normal idle for a FD when it had been warmed up, I noticed mine staying around 600rpm on idle which is still fine when in neutral. But when I'm in first gear and let it run, the car moves in a choppy mood! If I gives a little of gas, it's moving smooth again, and in second gear with no gas on pedal it's moving smoothly on its own. So it's just the first gear with no gas confused me a bit. I shorted the TEN terminal and checked but there's no error code at all (which is good thing :P). I'm thinking if that's because my idle was too low that the engine is struggling to move the car when I give no gas! Do u think I need to adjust the idle screw to wind up the idle a bit?

Will be great if anyone can shed me some light!

Yes, adjust the air screw under the throttle body elbow (drivers side of throttle body). You can see it only with a mirror. Proper idle is around 750 rpms.
