I have a Toyota Vitz 2011 (KSP130). After I recently changed the battery, the engine started vibrating much more than before when its idle/brake. It already had some vibration issues earlier, but this has made it worse.
I’m aware that this model has a history of engine vibration issues that is linked to the engine mounts, which I replaced a couple of years ago. But that isn't the issue because the vibration was not worse before the battery change. From what I can tell, the idle RPM is dropping too low now, which causes the engine to shake noticeably when idling. It had a higher RPM before the battery change.
Is there a way to manually increase the idle RPM to reduce the vibration? Or is there another fix I should try?
Officially joined the thel-hinganna normie horde with ....drumroll... a 2025 Vezel... I am eagerly anticipating joining the 'thel keeyak karanawada' debates at almsgivings.
Recently, got the opportunity to see and get inside of The one and only Japanese V12, Toyota Century(a.k.a Japanese Rolls Royce). Is it really upto Rolls Royce standards? Nope, I don't think so. Items like Switches and mirror housings are in plastic. But, we can be assured that the dashboard will not light up like Christmas and would run forever....
...and just like that from having parking space issues a few month's back I'm car-less.
The cost of renting something for a month or two (even more - personal imports have been quite messy of late) made me wonder if it actually makes sense to buy a quickly disposable car and get rid of it in a couple of months - but it seems the 'popular' models aren't moving. A few messages to sellers (registered owners) on marketplace resulted in them sending me daily price reduction updates.
Sleepless nights have begun. I'm twisting between SL320 and SL500. Should I just pay additional 2000 euros more and go for the SL500 and go broke or settle with a SL320?

Hi all,
I have a Toyota Vitz 2011 (KSP130). After I recently changed the battery, the engine started vibrating much more than before when its idle/brake. It already had some vibration issues earlier, but this has made it worse.
I tried the idle relearn procedure from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPrnH6VRBsI
It didn't help.
