  1. which engine?
  2. USA car?
  3. gas or diesel, omg, jeeps made world wide, with lots of engines
  4. No hot cold stated.
  5. if you scan the PCM and idle is wrong it TELLS you that. with DTC errors P1294 and check engine lamp glows.
  6. in gear or out, drive/park, a/c on or off.?
this is uSA forum where are you.?????????
the question can NOT be answered ! why? (1,2,3,4,5 above)
you never said hot or cold engine?
cold idles at its own spec. speed higher... a fact and cold idle based on overnight, parked average ambient temperatures.
a fact.
our jeep,is a WJ, in Europe it WG 2004
guess what , not same car, but same name,.. yes, shocking facts.

why not get car a tuneup
or serviced if things suddenly seem wrong...
your post reads as though, you just bought the car.
or is first care ever?
or never noticed cold engines raced, ?
tossing coins for you. landing on........ 4L
4.0L uSA GAS 4.0L inline 6,
cold idle is 1000 rpm chapter 9 serv. manual. IAC section
the PCM limits fast idle to 1800 to 2000 say with huge vacuum leak,or TPS failures.
engine in limp-in (home) mode, rpm is 1100. hot.
hot idle.750 +-50 rpm
btw the cluster tachometer is not instrument grade
only scans tell true RPM (or hand IR gun tach).
a dash tach is a toy, really.
some jeeps have optional (wench or snow plow) extened idle
switch ,on = 1000 rpm and same on police cars.
fact 2, there is no idle speed adjustment, its PCM hard coded.

The PCM controls the IAC to set RPM ,
on a hot engine, you can throw on the heater blower
the head amps, and RPM holds. not drop.'this shows you
the idle controls work
the dash meter is just toy, can be off 100rpm easy, after 13 years of service, we scan it, the scan tool never lies.

Engine idles at 1000 RPMs.At 60 MPH 2000 RPM's.Is this normal?

the 4.0L engine?
is this engine cold or hot.
why is 2000 rpm wrong for 60mph., (depends on engine and axle size and what gear you were in , then)

the idle speed for hot is too high
did you scan the PCM yet?
if hot , idle is high, is the thermostat holding water temp 180f or above. ? if not that is the problem.

2000 v 8 What would cause the rpms to flutuate while driving and be high when in park?

My Jeep Grand Cheroke Limited 2000 did the same thing and the dealer replaced the O2 sensor and problem was solved. It about drove me crazy until it was figured out.

Rpms runnning over 2000 jeep cherokee laredo 1997

Maybe the Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) if the computer thinks it is all the way to the floor then the gears would not shift until the engine RPM is real high. Also would not be able to determine the car is supposed to be idling. Do you have a check engine light? If you do this may come up on a scanner.

2004 jeep grand cherokee idling problem. Revs motor 200 to 500 rpms higher while driving.

I had the exact same problem on my 04 GC. I put some Techron Concentrate Plus Fuel System Cleaner in from Wal-Mart and it seemed to fix the problems right away. Let me know.

2004 jeep grand cherokee limited makes a noise

Sounds like a loose belt, Depending on what engine etc., it may need to be changed or if you have adjustment, tightened. When adjustment or replacement done, is a good time to check all pulleys. If your not up to it, an adjustment should not cost too much, few minutes work in most cases, if belt needs changing, price of belt & a little more labor involved.
