Silly question for cold climate FF's
Hello all, this might be a silly question but i just got my fit so bear with me.:rotfl:
I Took my fit up to the mountains and went for a hike, after i got back, the car was cold (30 F) and after starting it i turned on the heater (pointed at the windshield) and the defroster. The fit was idling at 1800. after i turned the defroster and ac comp off it went back down too its normal 800. I know i am paranoid but Is this normal? :confused: |
mine idles below 1k

It was just a coincidence. It always start out at higher rpm like 1800,then drops down to 800 after about 30 seconds. Turning on the defroster didn't affect it.

30F cold? lol.
Most cars will rev a bit higher when first started when it is cold. They quickly settle down to normal idle speed. |

When sitting in a parking lot, at idle, engage the AC to see what happens. Running the defrost / ventilation fan motor has less to do with it than the AC compressor and starting a cold engine. |
