when the car is idling, for some reason if i turn the steering wheel the rpms rise...this happens whether the car has warmed up or not!


WTF? lol..what is causing this...? HELP

Also, there is weird squeaking sound from under the car, someone told me that, i should grease my strut bar mounts in the engine bay?

What are the gaps on the stock Evo IX plugs (NGK Part # ILFR7H)?

 

could just be something goin on with ur power steering pump putting more strain than it should on the belt causing the engine to compensate and raise rpms so it doesn't stall. check for bulletins

 

99% sure thats totally normal. every car ive had with power steering has done. the power steering uses energy from the motor to assist you

 

how much RPM thus it increases by?

 

Yeah I have the same problem but honestly i couldn't help you but to tell you its no biggie.

 

+1 hes right.

 

tune will help a little, mine was doing the same thing i got my car tuned today and now it stays at a good 850rpm ideal

 

Same thing here, whenever I turn the wheel, the rpm's go up about a 100...

Mag00n is right, I've had it in every car so far that I've owned...no big deal.

 

No biggie. Mine does the same.

 

i hate power steering...if i didnt have a wife and child i would buy a delete kit...same deal here no worries

 

Wow man, Its called "Power steering". The power comes from the power steering pump which gets its power from the motor, in oder to move the steering rack and power the pump the rpms must rise. You have no buisness owning a sports car if you dont know this common knowledge.

 

Not a problem man.My car does this as well.

 

LOL, mine does to, its your power steering...lol

 

lol thanks for all the repsonses...i figured it was normal..just wanna be safe.


it only raises like 100rpm...Thanks!


any other replies to my other 2 questions?

 

Strut Bars don't squick. You must mean Sway Bar. You can lubricate your sway bar bushings.
