1: tune it up this decade?
2: EGR stuck open, the EGR main is well hidding behind
the intake man, at fire wall
it must not stick open
it can screw up 10 ways from sunday
but cleaning it is a 50k mile service point, in the opr guide.

400 rpm is usually EGR caused
it must NEVER be open at idle.

SOURCE: 1997 suzuki vitara. new battery now car wont start.

Assuming the terminals are hooked up correctly, are your cable ends corroded? Are you sure the fittings are clean and tight? If it was hooked up backward check your fuse box and hope it only fried some fuses.

you may need to change the transmission fluid and filter,when the filter becomes blocked it will not let the cold/thicker fluid through once it warms up the fluid thins outs allowing it to go into gear and shift again

SOURCE: car repair manual for a 1997 suzuki vitara v6 2ltr petrol 24v

Haynes don't cover that engine. I've found a copy of the H25 engine manual which is similar to the H20 engine we have. If you search for SQ416 in google you'll find a copy you can buy or if you're lucky you'll find a free download somewhere like I did!! :-) It has helped me loads.

What controls the a/c stepup in 2004 vitara j20 engine

happy new year.
WHAT IS THE RPM>?
hot or cold engine? both key factors.
the a/c puts a large load on the engine
the engine J20 is powerful, and has idle controls
so now those controls are dead.
1: if engine has full power then its not due to lean bogging at idel
2: idle controls failing, ISC failure or failsafe mode.(pcm)
3; Seizing a/c compressor.

idle controls are suspended in fails safe mode
idle controls will fail of engine is real lean.
idle controls will fail if the engine is overloaded.

we check the a/c by hand to see if its ok.
we scan the PCm see if DTC ERRORS. SEE RPM AT 800
See coolant at 180F
we then make sure the engine at hot idle is at closed loop status
if not, we fix that first.

idle is last to fix, all else must be correct or idle will or can fail.
eg: running real lean, running rich and misfiring. etc.
Egr VALVE STUCK OPEN

AND lots more..... ask

VIDEO FOR ADJUSTING IDLE 1999 SUZUKI VITARA

You don't say if its manual or auto?
Looking at its age its possible the emission control valves/hoses may be blocked and it just needs a full service and these things checked by a trained person. Check the service periods and go from there. It may be that if all is correct then a person with a screwdriver is all it needs.

Idle

Does the engine stall? if not the motor mount is the issue, it is allowing engine vibration to be sent along the frame to the driver, the mounts have 2 functions, the 1st is of course to hold the engine in place, the 2nd is to isolate the vibration from the driver, engines vibrate allot, but if all the mounts are good you seldom feel it.

hey, check your coolant level on your radiator, take note I said " radiator not coolant reservoir.

there could be low coolant level that causes it.
