nesher,your car should idle at about 700rpm IN GEAR. [aprox]   :idea:

Just 2 very late comment.

1.Does having the steering wheel on the left cause a problem with the gear linkage set up within the engine compartment when compared to a right hand drive car?

ie. my RHD car, looking forward, the gear linkage goes over to the left.  No obstructions etc.

2. What does it idle at?
 low or high will cause vibration

for the first question i don't think it matters... should it be?

as for the second q. it's approximately on 700RPM on idle (doesn't change when in N or when a\c is on or off)
so it's like 2i30's said it should be...

another small update... after contacting the manufacture
the manager said I need to update the car computer and that should help with the issue
once it will be done I'll let you all know if it helped...

so progress was made!
the car seem to work better and with less vibrations (still there are from time to time, not as bad they used to be)
but we are still need more time to see if it was effective
we also wanna check the fuel theory

thanks again for the support, great forum with great people ;)
