Hi Guys,

 

Just a quick question,

 

What should my car be idling at, and more specifically just after i turn the engine over, sometimes it sits at about 12-1300 and sometime 900 rpm...

 

Anything to worry about?

 

Also, any recomendations on oil?

 

Thanks

MrL

tickover once warm is just under 700 with the aircon on. Nearer 600 with the aircon off. All depend on how cold it is when you start your car and if its garaged.

 

 

10w-40 Silkolene Pro from opie oils is what I use. Around £40 for 5ltr with discount
