When a vehicle is about to turn, the driver typically reduces speed to navigate the turn safely. This decrease in speed leads to a reduction in engine RPM (revolutions per minute) because the throttle is eased, resulting in less fuel and air entering the engine. Additionally, the transmission may shift to a lower gear to provide better torque and control during the turn, which can further influence RPM dynamics.

turning the steering wheel uses pressure from the power steering pump and puts a load on the engine causing it to slow the rpm. Should rise again when you stop turning the wheel. completely normal.
Rpm stands for revolutions per minute. This is talking about the revolutions the crankshaft goes per minute. The faster you go to more revoultions that are accomplished. Therefore the faster you go, the rpm goes up. And as you slow down it goes down.
The loose wire connection, or it may have stalled.
most likely you need to replace your O2 senser.
Your RPM's increase automatically to compensate for the additional load from the A/C. As the A/C compressor runs in defrost mode to prevent fogging, the same will happen there. It's just your electronic engine controls maintaining the correct idle RPM.
Why would a 1996 Nissan maxima's RPM needle go from 2 to 6 and seven, back and fort like crazy.
When you are shifting gears, your RPMs will go down because your clutch is being pressed. If your RPMs don't go back up when you release your clutch, you should see a mechanic.
do you mean warmed up ,at idle, the rpm surges up and down with out foot on gas ?
The spark plug gap can cause the RPMs to fluctuate, while idling. The more probable cause of the fluctuating RPMs is a bad camshaft.
You turn the turning signal up to go left and down to go right. You turn the turning signal up to go left and down to go right.
Hey Gary==THere is a rev limiter but it should be at about 6000 RPM. I would change the fuel filter and see if that helped. GoodluckJoe -- What else does it do? Does it just stay at that rpm and not shift, or at that rpm does it just bog down? Keep us posted. =) Boost
