Congrats!

Please keep us posted on the MPG differences after the change. Can you still feel the engine running (with windows up) after the fix?

On the other hand, if vibrations can be eliminated by doing what you did, "preventing" damages to other engine parts (i.e., bolts and other parts getting loose) might be more cost effective in the long run.

Are you kidding me!!

when you lie and driving in 150 km which turns are on the tachometer when at it on? what comes off no bolt then it should be no problem at all! saw on the computer that you have margin to increase the speed up to 150 rpm without problems

Sorry, I meant "preventing" bolts and other parts from getting loose might be more cost effective in the long run.

If I understand you correctly, you mean that with higher idle screws can loosen?
but when you drive the car at speeds of 150 km which is idle about 3000 rpm, why does it not then losens it then? i dont buy your argument

Gasoline consumption is increased not only because I raised the idle speed when driving. mininal increase at idle no one will notice.

I am saying higher RPM at "presetted idle" to eliminate any vibrations to prevent any bolts or other parts to come loose over time is a good thing. You did good.
