umm not possible if the same gearbox has been used... thats what determines the revolutions per minute(Revs - not ravs!) idling speed is adjustable. should be 800 +/-50

hope this helps.

may or may not help but here you go?

lmk if you want anything else from the manual! paid for it, may as well use it







they are testing the transmission... see if you get the results mentioned.

not possible unless something really really bad is goin on in your gearbox! id guess it would be over 2 anyway. (wish i could have 2000 in 5th @ 100km/hr
if you refresh the screen i reuploaded them into a bigger size to make it readable too.)

Manual would be different as you can change to 5th gear i think or even 4th has different ratio to automatic


But anyways i owned 3 hardtop astina v6 (Automatics not manual) and when at 100km it was all just under 3000rpm

So i would say its normal champ - or 3 of my hardtops were stuff, which i dont think so .

So my guess its all normal nothing to worry about if yours is a auto, cause wouldnt have a clue what it sits on manual

Is yours a auto ?

in my manual corolla it sits about 1800 in 5th @100kmh so i would imagine a 3 speed auto wouldnt differ too much

lol,

of course it would be different in 5th gear on manual would be a big difference in auto on 3rd gear, the 3speed would be rev'n harder


looking at those pictures its looks fine for a 4speed auto v6 ba astina.


like i said i had 3 auto v6's and all the same as yours, so i think its normal, if there was a auto and 5 speed on these ba's chances are it would sit between 2000-2500 @ 100kms

i mean i could be wrong on the 5th gear auto thing, but regarding your question, its normal at those pictures
