Anyone else notice a second idle drop? I noticed a second idle drop right around the three minute mark the last time we let it warm up at idle.

Greetings @Zig,
I can test this for you today. I haven't driven my car for 3 days. I see a two-stage RPM drop on a cold start. It starts high and then drops down to to 1,200 something, and then even more when its warmed up and ready to drive. I'll capture what mine does exactly today with times.

*zig mode on*

You can always pick stuff up when it drops if it isn't liquid.

*zig mode off*
Do you wait for the first or second before you pull away? First start of the day or every time?

I pull out on the first, wait a bit and go for the second.
Twitchy i see, unless grabbing gears before lubrication has been sufficiently disseminated?

Its pointless in a zig thread. You already know everything.
Aren’t you a tuner? Did i start with a question or a statement?

Ive learned my lesson to try and present facts to you or debate with you. It ends up being a complete waste of time. Like this is turning out to be since you always need to have the last word. So have at it.
