help: W124 400E high idle (1000-1200 rpm)
After transmission swap and installing new lower wire harness the engine idles is idling at 1000 -1200 with hot engine. This is not good.
Vacuum is fine with 20" Hg at idle. What is involved for idle control? Does someone have a diagram what to look for? Best, Martin |

Give a look see at your throttle and transmission linkages at the connection on the motor.

What I noticed: Idle is at 1000rpm at cold start...and idle drops to 700rpm with warm engine at 40-60 Celsius and it goes up to 1000-1200 when hot.

I adjusted the small vertical rod at throttle linkage at the fire wall/back of engine. I heard the ETA click before but by closer inspection there was still a tiny gap between lever and end stop.
So I slackened the rod a bit and voila ... idle dropped from 1000 to 700... case is solved. ETA lever needs to touch the end stop and idle! Thanks for your help. |

Do you mean the short connection rod (short rod with ball joints) from gas pedal to the ETA down at the intake/ throttle?
yes I had to disconnect this one during transmission swap. I could have adjusted that incorrectly... so it won't 'click' to the end stop at the ETA. I'll check. Martin |

Do you have a small micro switch on the bowden cable if so is it making contact with the quadrant .

Did you replace the vacuum hose to the auto gearbox.?

650 rpm is a correct idle speed
