2003 Audi 85 Repair Question
What is high idle?
At the risk of exposing my "Newbosity", I have to ask what the "high idle" is? I've seen people say "you should get the high idle kit" or "should I get the high idle kit?" What the heck is the high idle, is it a problem that needs fixed, is it a performance upgrade. Obviously it has something to do with the CTD's idleing higher but that's all the further I got on my own. I did many searches, and the only results I get are where people mentioned the high idle, but I couldn't find a good explaination of it. Could someone point me in the right direction? Moderator's, please put this in the appropriate place. If I knew what high idle was, I'd put it in the right place, but then again, there'd be no need for this thread at all. Thanks in advance.

why does this matter? is there a problem?
Unfortuneatley all that autozone is telling you is that a evap code is popping up in your fuel system. This can be from many different aspects of the fuel system not just the gas cap which the idiots from autozone can not realize. Yes diags may cost 100 dollars but that is not just the mechanic just pulling up a code it is also them diagnosing the problem as well. Basically i am saying good luck on someone diagnosing your vehicle online and you should take it to the professionals, most of the time they refund it if you get the work done to your vehicle. Can't be cheap with this one, sorry
Maybe you can try by yourself, just need the obd diag tool:

high idle is a feature that allows you to adjust your idle speed up and down, not just the stock 750or so rpm. useful for quicker warm ups, running a pto, not letting it idle(which is really bad for the motor), etc.
