What's your 24V idle

Hi, interested to find out the average idle speed for 24v's. Mine is 750rpm when warm and no A/C or other electrical devices being used. I'm worried this might be a bit high.
Can people post theirs please (Warm engine,no ancillaries being used).
Guy.
PS Are the idle speeds individually set for each engine during production?

Hi Guy,
Mine's been 720-730 rpm for last 5 years. Engine run's beautifully (now up to 65k).

My cossie idles at around the 750rpm mark, maybe a teeny bit less. If you blip the throttle it very briefly drops to about 1000rpm, then drops again to 750rpm.
 
Mine has a few more miles under its belt than paul's (about 105k more!) but that shouldn't effect it hugely i would have thought.

650 in drive? I assume you mean in drive foot on brake? If so mine sits at 750rpm whether in drive or neutral.

Forgot to add that the rpm comes from scans. On the dash the needle is just on/under the 750 mark (same in neutral or drive)

My idle drops when I put it in D but only from the initial idle, if i put it back in N then back to D it stays a steady 730ish
