Engine Idle RPM

Recommended Posts

Hello, I'm a newbe to this great forum. I just traded my Huracan Spyder for a 2016 Aventador Roadster (Grigio Iris). Comes with the Factory Exhaust mod. The engine idles at 1000 RPM warmed up, is this a normal idle RPM, used to seeing 7-800 on the Huracan.

Just wondering....

Welcome and congrats on your purchase, share some photos.

 

My SV idles at 850 RPM some days then some days 960 RPM some days 1060 RPM, all over the shop, I don't event think it is temps related because it does it at various temps!

 

It irritates me when it idles at 1060 rpm, the race exhaust sounds too loud while sitting at the lights.

 

Looking forward to hearing from others on this subject.

I drive in sport mode and my 2016 idles under 1000... I would say its the 850 range.

 

In my huracan, if it was in corsa, the idle went up.

Interesting point, the idle might be different depending on the mode you are in.

Same with mine, idle RPM moves around. Tech told this is normal for the V-12. Out today for a run, idle was at 850, then after some accelerated runs it was 1000rpm, stopped to put some gasoline in it idle was just under 1000.

Will post some photo's when I get to the min post requirement....

Same here so it might just be normal.

 

How do you like it so far?

Totally in love!!! While the H was great, the AV is in a class of it's own in terms of style, presence, performance and that V-12 engine sound is like manna from heaven. Driving in traffic stop & go no problem I just never go auto, manage your shifts and it's smooth as the DC. Same goes for high performance driving, one tip I picked up is "lift -shift" for throttle control and it works great without the lurching, it's like you have to drive this car which makes it all the more challenging and fun. Lot's I haven't done like Thrust mode (launch mode) gonna wait to get up the courage to experiment with that, but I've only put on 150km since I brought it home, can't wait to get her out again.

Sounds like you are having a lot of fun, there is something about the v12 which is quite magical!

Regarding changing Idle RPM, just noticed this in the Owners Handbook (Page 276) Power Management System:

 

"You will also notice that the idle speed of the engine is higher than usual. This is perfectly normal and should not be cause for concern. The increased idle speed produces more electrical power for charging the battery."

 

I think this makes sense for me because I notice that the engine idles normally around 850, but then at times it's 1000rpm especially when the cooling fans kick in. Anyone else notice this?

I would be more concerned if there were a wide variation while in one particular mode.

 

The RPMs do not vary from mode to mode, I’ve tried.

same here, mode selection doesn't make any difference..
