hi all,
my car, camry 2000 - 60,000 miles, got a very high idle (1800 rpm) when starting, and it takes about 3 minutes to go down to normal. Can someonelet me knowwhat is the problem with my car, and how to fix it. Thank you.

RE: high idle when starting

like the other guy already said....

you mean start up the car in the cold morning....

if in the morning then... its a normal.... because the engine need little bit of exercise to warm up before the car can run...

Thanks for your answers. Yes, I start my in car in the morning. But my wife car, camry 1999, 125000mi, doesn't has that problem. The Idle is about 1400 rpm, then go down to normal just a minute.

This is normal. It has nothing to do with "exercise" as previously posted. It's to speed up the warm up process to reduce emissions.
