Hi all, I hope you are all enjoying your Gen 6 Rangers.

I've just passed 23k km on MY22 6G Ranger Wildtrak.

I have noticed recently the idle sits a bit low and shaky when the aircon is on and is especially noticeable when downshifting/slowing down.
The RPM will drop and make a small shudder when slowing down or downshifting from slowing down. So far it hasn't caused any problems but worries me.

What could be the cause? Bad aircon compressor with too much friction? Some confusion in the software?

Any advice would be much appreciated.

My ā€˜24 lariat idles between 800 and 900 RPM. It vibrates the entire vehicle. Took it to the dealer and was told he can’t adjust the idle and my engine is within inspect. Very disappointing.

I hate to jinx anything but my Lariat idles flawlessly at idle.

Was it like that from day 1? I did notice that idle makes the car shake from day 1 but not as bad as it feels when the RPM drops on down shift. Its not to the point that it feels like its going to stall but its noticeable.

Does it get better once the engine is warmed up?

Mine is rough when it's cold but smooths out once it's up to temp.

Mine ideas at 800rpm. Very rough. Vibrated entire truck. Took it back to the dealer & was told the truck "is in spec" So sad.....
