[DML] Re: automatic in Park [was: Lambda system]

A 950rpm idle is not spec. The idle should stabilize at around 750 - 
in gear, not in gear, AC on, AC off, etc.

You still have problems somewhere. From your comment, you may, among 
other possible issues, have a linkage adjustment incorrect or 
binding.

Plus - there is something else going on. The "shudder"??? what's 
that all about?
