1999 Camry V6 had intermitent low idle when cold. Mechanic cleaned idle control solenoid and now idle is steady but higher than before and I noticed that shifts, especially 1to 2, is much harsher. Took the car back and mechanic lowered idle - 1400 cold, 800 when warm now. Shifting harshness improved but not back to old ways. Mechanic does not recommend lowering idle - I tend to recall that it used to be 1200 cold and 600 warm. Are two things even related?

Thanks fro reading!

Did he jump Te-1 to E-1 at the check connector while adjusting it and in drive gear?

Excuse, I do not understand your answer - I am looking at 1999 Camry Service manual and it does not indicate te-1 and e-1 connectors - it shows VTA to E2 and VCA to E2 resistance checks to verify throttle body operations. It aslo does not mention being in drive gear. Could you please expend a bit?

Thanks.
