Check idle speed

Turn off electricity consumers and warm up the engine.

Start the engine.

Keep the engine speed of about 3000 ^min -1 until the fans start to run the cooling system.

Release the accelerator pedal.

Wait for the shutdown cooling fans.

Make sure that the idle speed (WDS: PID ^min -1) is correct, using the WDS or equivalent.
