Why is my Subaru Outback revving so high?
My 2003 subaru outback wagon, manual transmission, starting revving about 1500-2000 rpms higher than normal today. When I put the car in neutral, the car revs high sometimes increasing in rpms. Also when i left off the gas the car doesnt decrease in speed or rpms almost like the gas pedal is sticking.
When does the RPM go back to normal?
The RPM will usually go back to normal as you accelerate the vehicle, but will increase again after you stop. This is definitely not a normal situation. If you are experiencing a rough idle or your RPM is running high, then there are a variety of reasons for why this could be happening.
Why does my car idle at 700 rpm?
There is an air filter which prevents debris from the air from getting into the chamber. But if this air filter is dirty or clogged, then there will be less clean air passing through it. This will cause the engine to idle rough. Your engine should normally get to around 700 RPM after you start the vehicle.

Is there a warranty on a Subaru Outback?
Older Subarus (2000 through 200?) had lots of headgasket issues. If you had the Subaru coolant fix that they called for mnay years ago, they might help cover the fix cost. I don’t remember the details exactly, but I think if you did the coolant additive they would give a 100,000 mile warranty.
