Sounds about right to me, that's what my 05 Esky does.

I noticed also like you the voltage seemed a little low at idle. I repleced the battery and voltage is higher now with the newer battery. I knew the battery was getting weak as I was able to kill the battery with the stereo on at low volume in the driveway in just about an hour.
