problem #1

Jan 312007

FJ Cruiser 4WD 6-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 21 miles
Engine accelerates to 1500 RPM when I take my foot completely off the throttle when driving at slow speeds (under 1500 RPM). This causes the vehicle (manual transmission) to speed up instead of slowing down, exactly the opposite of the "engine braking" that one would expect. I feel this presents a major safety hazard when driving in traffic and / or icy road conditions.
