What RPM Does Your 4.0 Idle at

just wondering what evryones 4.0 truck idles at. My New 2012 less than 3K on it is idling at around 1000 RPM this seams high to me any thought? Is this normal.

And yes warm or cold its idling at 1k

 

mine idles around 800 or a little over...jumps up to 1k when the ac kicks on or something like that...

 

Mine idles at 800ish at a stop without heater or ac on. With heater or ac on idle is aroung 1000. In the mornng when could it idles at about 1500 for a few mins.

I
-normal-

 

I had trouble finding info about this in Tacoma world but a google search came up with the same numbers as you guys.

Mine is right at 1000 with the heater on no AC so I guess in normal

Thanks

 

Surething

 

my 2012 idles 1400 when cold and 700 when warm

 

im pretty sure your compressor runs with heat now for defrost to keep it lubed all year long from ac to defrost...

here ya go

 

My 09 idles warm at 650ish and cold around 1400

 

This is my '10 exactly.

 

Cold cold, 1490.
Warm, no accessories, 690. Turn on headlights, 700. AC, 800.
Over 10 mph, 1300.

 

from louisiana, hot weather and humid.

idles around 650-700 usually. i think youre OK op.

 

When my Truck is in Park idle speed would be at 1100 with AC on, but When I set my truck to drive the idle speed drops to 500RPM. Is 500RPM good? Even after its warmed up, idle speed would still be at around 500 to 600RPM with AC on. But theres no stall.

 

Once warm, 800-850 should be what you see in any condition.

 

Not mine. Fully warmed, in drive, with foot on the brake... idle is about 550, if a/c kicks on it goes up to 700.

 

My radio gauge says about 820-ish parked with the AC on high.

 

Get off the internet and go enjoy your rig.

 

Welcome to TW!

I idle around 800ish without A/C on. Around a 1,000 with A/C on.

Just FYI since we are on the subject of idling. If you ever disconnect your battery for anything for more than a couple of minutes it will reset the ECU and therefore cause the truck to idle lower than mentioned above. This is normal and idle will return to normal after driving for a while as the ECU re-learns.

 

In Park or Drive?
