If it really is idling too fast (I think it should be 900RPM for
Motronic cars) then something needs fixing, rather than adjusting. It
could be down to various things. Maybe a small air leak somewhere on
the inlet side, or a duff idle air valve or temperature sensor etc.
Then again, the idle speed might be spot-on, but the rev-counter is
duff.
Cheers,
Colin.
