What is the normal idle speed for the Volkswagen Touran?
3 Answers
Volkswagen Touran's normal idle speed is around 850 rpm. Introduction to Idle Speed: The engine's idle speed will increase with load and operating conditions. When the idle speed fluctuates, the vehicle may experience shaking, at which point the throttle body should be cleaned and the idle speed matched using a computer. The water droplets discharged from the engine's exhaust pipe are closely related to the ambient temperature. Solution: It is recommended to regularly clean the throttle body and perform computer idle speed matching. Regularly remove dust and debris from the condenser to maintain a good air conditioning heat dissipation system. Perform regular maintenance, check tire pressure, and ensure safe and stable driving.
As a repair shop owner, I'm all too familiar with the idle issues with the Volkswagen Touran. The normal idle speed for this car when warmed up is between 700-800 RPM, slightly higher at cold start, usually around 1000 RPM. It's normal for the idle to increase by about 50 RPM when the AC is on in summer. If you notice it consistently stays above 900 RPM, it's likely due to carbon buildup in the throttle body or sensor issues. Remind your friends to drive at highway speeds occasionally to prevent carbon deposits. Don't ignore unstable idle - small problems can turn into costly repairs if left unattended.
I've driven a Touran for seven years, and this car's idling is quite worry-free. During daily warm-up, it generally stabilizes around 750 RPM, with no shaking at all when waiting at red lights. During winter starts, it rises to 1100 RPM initially, then drops back after two or three minutes as the coolant temperature rises. Last week, I noticed the idle speed was slightly high, and the repair shop said there was an error with the air flow meter. They recommended developing a habit of checking the dashboard—the normal RPM needle should steadily point between 7 and 8. Also, remember to replace the air filter regularly, as a dirty filter can affect air intake and cause idle speed fluctuations.
