Hi,

I bought the car 5 months ago from Carmax. Recently, I read the Service Manual & notice that my car has high idle rpm. I should be 750-850 rpm but actually 950-970 rpm.
Is it normal to a car with 112k miles on it? I there any way to fix without special tools?
If I must have it fixed. Should I go to Honda dealer or Carmax or local car services?

Thank a lot!

Agreed. I would verify the RPM with a scan tool.

If the idle speed is out of spec, check for a torn air intake boot.
