The normal idle speed for the Sportage is generally between 700-800 RPM. If it's too low, the engine may shake easily, and if it's too high, it will increase fuel consumption. Idle speed is an operating condition of a car, referring to the engine running in neutral gear. The engine speed during idle is called the idle speed, which can be adjusted by changing the throttle opening size. When adjusting the idle speed, the RPM should not fluctuate abruptly, as this can cause premature wear to the engine. It's best to have it adjusted at an auto repair shop. Unstable idle speed can lead to excessively high idle speed, which requires checking for loose or leaking intake manifolds. This significantly increases fuel costs and also accelerates carbon buildup in the engine. If the idle speed is too low, there is a risk of the engine stalling while driving. If the idle speed fluctuates, it may be due to faulty spark plugs or ignition coils, causing the engine pistons to malfunction and resulting in severe shaking.

Does Turbocharging Save Fuel?

Turbocharged models do not save fuel; they simply deliver stronger power output. Here are the relevant details: 1. Overview: Compared to naturally aspirated engines of the same displacement, turbocharged engines consume slightly more fuel. Whether fuel is saved depends on the engine's thermal efficiency and power tuning, not the turbocharger. 2. Turbocharging Principle: Within the same unit of time, it forces more air-fuel mixture into the cylinder for compression and combustion. This allows for greater power output at the same RPM compared to naturally aspirated engines.
