Hi Guys,

Looking for advice or thoughts.

When I start my Defender up and put the car into drive or reverse the idle drops and causes significant vibration through the car until it warms up. I guess the gearbox is providing quite a bit of resistance until it warms up and oils get moving?

If I adjust the ideal too much the car creeps to fast. would adjusting the valve clearances help keep a stronger idle?

just curious if anybody else has experienced this? or if you have any recommendations?

Pairing is a zf4hp22 & Mazda SL35
