'02 WRX - engine warm up

D

Dundo

'02 WRX, 34K...never noticed something similar before. This morning,
turned the engine on as every other day. Just pressed clutch (manual
shift) and turned key. Engine started immediately, then, it started to
raise RMPs to roughly 2200-2300 in a period of approx. 2 sec and then
back to 1500 in the same timeframe. This was going on for good 2 minutes
(I left it running without pressing the gas pedal out of curiosity...).
After 2 minutes, it finaly stabilized at approx. 1500 and started to
drop to 900-1000.....

Anybody ever noticed something similar?...Even in the coldest days last
winter, immediately after turning the key it would go to 1500 RPM and
stay there until warmed up, then it would start dropping.....Never seen
those RPM ups and downs before......
 
I have seen this before, the dealer said it's idle control problem, they
had it for a couple days to fix it.
