Default Idle speed

I have a 98 A4 1.8T with 121k, mostly highway miles, and my car idles at 1400rpm. I am just wondering if this is normal for this car or what suggestions you have that could lower my idle speed. The engine is stock.

Default RE: Idle speed

1400rpm is too high and its controlled by the computer so things to check are the inside of the throttle body for gunk build up ( clean it out ) next is the cable ( is it too tight not releasing all the way )
