In exceptional circumstances e.g. customer complaints concerning droning noises, vibrations at idling speed, it is permitted to adjust the idling speed slightly. But ensure that the idling speed is not outside the specified idling range. (If the speed is outside the tolerance range it is possible that the vehicle will fail the next exhaust emissions test.)
