| Description of the problem | I leased a low end camry 6 months ago. Since then i have experienced the following problem about 20 times. When slowing to a stop usually on a slight upgrade the engine rpms increase from the 600 value at idle to about 2200. This occurs in a speed range of 0 to 5 mph. Fortunately i have my foot on the brake when it has happened and generally am not close to the car in front of me so i am able to hold the car with the foot brake but generally need to shut down the engine to eliminate the high rpm and when restarting all is back to normal. I have had the car at the dealers 3 times and all is "well" based on the computer diagnostics. I suspect a software problem in the computer but that falls on deaf ears. |
