Parang i notice it in the mornings.

Did the check-light come on?

At only 7,0xx kms, one morning I experienced rough/weak idle. Idle was around 800-900 rpm instead of the usual 1100 rpm. But with noticeable vibration. Later in the day, the C-E-L and traction control indicator came on with the cruise control lights blinking. If you drive the vehicle in this condition, it goes into limp mode and fuel consumption higher.

Brought it to M.I. casa, they cleaned the throttle body. That cured the problem.

First time to encounter a vehicle that needed throttle body cleaning at this age and mileage.

Nope, the CEL did not turn on.

On one hand, I'm glad to know that other people have noticed it too, but on the other hand, I'm a bit more wary about the build quality.

Did the casa charge the cleaning of the throttle body to the warranty?

Yes they did. BTW, its out of warranty already.

But you are very correct about the concern regarding the build quality. Lets say its not that great (at least for my unit). In fact, I never encountered these kind of problems with other japanese brands that are made in Thailnd. Anyway....

Could it be the compressor?

It's possible. I'll try idling without the A/C on and see if the fluctuations happen.

No variation in idle rpm speed on my XT. The normal idle rpm speed is between 700-800rpm. from a cold start, it starts out at around 1500 rpm then gradually goes down to around 1000 rpm when the blue cold temperature light turns off.
