Mine only revs up to 1900 rpm on startup, then quickly settles back down.

^^^what they said^^^

The "norm" for cars that do this seems to be about 2000 RPM...3 grand seems a bit high...

DaveP-

Glad I'm not the only one with the high rev- drives me crazy- especially when it sits for a week and I start her up and get two seconds of rod knocks at 3000 rpm! Not good for engine longevity.
