My 2015 FRS a/t also does this in park and neutral.

I took it into the dealer in October and after two days they said "it was normal" because (a) they had no clue how to fix it and (b) they had another 2015 that did the same thing.

I have had many, many cars in the last 50 years and none of them exhibited this type of idle. I tried to explain to them that I did not think this was "normal". The fact that they had another 2015 that exhibited this behavior does not make it normal. That argument is like writing "2 + 2 = 5" on the black board and then calling it "normal". It is not normal. It is simply "consistently wrong".

They did say that if I could get enough names together they would take it to Scion and ask to have it resolved. Like having two cars that are messed up is not enough to get them to do the right thing.

Anyone else think we should try to create a list of names and serial numbers and see if it goes anywhere?
