Idle re-adjustment on a 182

[fizzy_drink]

Is this possible?

Can this be done at any garage with the diagnostic compter?

I want it to sit @ 1.1k.

Ta,

Oms.

 

[Dan@SJM]

it may be able too, but why doi you want 1.1k?

Stick a bit of paper under the throttle pedal.
Cannot be done by Renault the ecu sets itself at 800+-50.

Poo...

So a remap would do it then? (not that I want to pay £££ just for that).

Can I try to program it myself? :S

Remaps for £350 now if you realy want.
Nope there no have a go programming the only thing you could do is unplus one of the throttle potentialometers (which works out throttle position) as idle is then increased to 1.3k.

Hmm.. will that affect the rest of the throttle operation ?

I can't be arsed with the revs dropping when I'm changing gear.

 

[theduck]

why do you want a high idle?

r-sport ECU from fast chip they will give it an 1100 rpm idle for you

Omar, I've just got my ECU back from Fastchip today with the 182 'Group N' reflash.

I know exactly what you mean about the revs dropping and the idle speed, and this does what you want. Throttle response is so much quicker too.

I always said the R-sport i had on my 172 was much nicer to drive with because of the higher idle, and this is the same (although not quite as high as my rsport was)

And will cost you alot more.

if it uses a potentialometer, depending on how its used (high resitance = fully open, or high resistand is fully closed) you could used a simple, 30p resistor...a potentialometer is just a varible resistor with a fancy name!

this would only work if the potentialometer is used like so:

high resistance = fully open/full throtle

you could also simply add a varible resistor in line so you could adjustit whenever you liked!

The fatty - I wouldn't recomend this insurance companies won't like it disconnecting the wiring though you could say was just a faultly loose wire.

Hehe... it's not as if they don't go wrong do they?

Cheers Nik... I'll fink about it!
