Need some quick help!

I just replaced my APP sensor and now I feel that my idle is a little lower than it used to be. Can someone that has an Automatic 04-08 3.2L TL take a picture of where your idle is? It would be greatly appreciated. Mine for those that are curious is currently at about 0.85 on the rpm gauge.

Actually, 850 is high. Service manual spec for AT or MT is 750+/-50....

Really? Wow I'm used to seeing mine at like 1,100 or so... Maybe it was just because of the faulty APP sensor. I never really paid that much attention to it before. A pic for proof would ease my mind but thanks for the input.

That's the Service Manual, not the owner's manual.

Its the idle semi-cold... Had been running about an hour before and hadn't cooled completely yet when I changed it.

I had the service manual... that's why i feel like an idiot for not looking at it.
