Cold weather high rpms
Cold weather high rpms
In the winter time when I start and drive my car the car is very quick to jump high in rpm’s when driving…after about 5 or so minutes when warmed up the rpm’s will be at normal level and won’t go up so high when accelerating.. does this make sense and is that normal?
That's normal. Give the car few minutes idling before you start driving especially in the morning when weather is 30s or below (don't listen to those who say you need few seconds before launch), especially in Nissan engines
Car computer orders higher RPM to warm engine (and transmission) faster when it's cold outside for better fuel and emission efficiency.
