Hi it is sitting about 600 when in drive I had a quick look under the pedal tonight
And can see a small screw with a lock nut that I could adjust to hold the pedal
Down a wee tad

As far as I no its called a grey import.its a 1997 terrano regulus
I believe it could be a pr50 model but I may be wrong
It looks more like a Mitsubishi challenger
I haven't seen another like it

It runs fine on the move but if you have to stop in traffic
It would shake the fillings out your teeth

I'm sure the R50 is a Pathfinder or it is in the US:augie as for the tickover 600rmp in drive at a standstill might be right but you really need to check what it is in park or neutral

Be careful with that little screw.I tried to adjust mine on old tdi and it sheared off.
In the end I loosened off the two screws which hold the wire spool and moved it ever so slightly which tweaked the tick over.
This auto I have got now is the same, rattles and shakes at idle in park at around the 600 rpm mark.
Another job on my to do list.

r3mR

Hi there I used to have an r3mR the Chassis Number on the bulkhead should start with letters and numbers as follows PR50* then a set of numbers. I found a proper owners hand book on e bay that explained all the controls, switches etc.

I had an issue briefly with low idle but it sort of resolved itself. It was around 600-650 rpm when in drive or reverse. It idled a little faster when cold and always ran better in the Power position especially on a cold engine.

Check the position of the little 3 position rocker switch that gives you the alternatives of Economy, Normal and Power and check the connections are good. The switch has amber and green lights to show the mode selected on the switch itself. Also I found some of the small vacuum type hoses under the bonnett around the manifold area had persished.

There was a sort of bellows/damper on the throttle part where the cable went onto the engine and I lubricated this. Can't remember as it was a couple of years ago but think there was a small adjuster on this that I tinkered with.

For good measure I used some injector cleaner and added 2T oil every 4th tankful this always seemed to make the engine smoother and quieter and raised the idle by a few rpm takinging the lumpiness out.

adjust the potentiometer on the accelerator pedal, only a small adjustment mind you...we are talking .5 of a millimeter at a time.
