Collected my Juke on Thursday and a Tenka 1.6 DIG-T and my wife has stalled the car a few times
I have driven the car tonight and i find the revs even when the temp is warm stay at 2500 rpm when you come to a standstill before dropping down to i think about 900 rpm for normal idiling speed
I think the revs dropping is catching her out when she pulls away and the car stalls and twice it has taken 3 or 4 attempts to restart
Can the owners of this engine notice if the rpm statying up before dropping is normal or do i return the car to the stealer to have a look at?
I have told her indoors to try and match the rpm with a bit more throttle before pulling away but this can instill some wheel spinning and the car attracts enough attention without chewing the tyres up!
Thanks for your input
