Hello,

Ok, first off since it is most likely fuel injected there is no manual adjustment. The Idle is controlled by the TPS (Throttle Position Sensor) and on some vehicle it is also controlled by the IAC (Idle Air Control) Valve. Another possibility is a vacuum leak.

So, Is your engine light on? If so then it is a sensor and you will need to get codes read. What is the engine size? Will see if can give instructions on pulling codes yourself.
