i know that's just normal lalo na bago pa auto mo... cold start pa yan...

Normal lang yan. Maiinis lang service advisor sa petty concern mo. But it's their job anyway so go ahead just so you get your peace of mind.

Ah ganun ba? Hahaha! Thanks for your input sir tr3s and sir jut703! Really helpful for a noob car owner like me

Mine also does that, 1-2 mins before the rpm goes down to below 1k. Lalo na, I live in Baguio. So I used fully synth oil.

Same here, mejo matagal bumaba sa 900 pagstart ng kotse ko sa umaga. 2 minutes . Regular oil lang gamit ko

Question po regarding sa TPL na binayaran naten sa dealer. Nakuha niyo na po ba yung sa inyo? Hindi pa kase nabibigay yung akin . July 2014 ko nabili kotse sa kanila. Natext ko na Agent ko reg don bigyan nya daw ako printed copy. Ganun din ba sa inyo? Hindi kase ko papayag kung printed copy lang aabot saken. Gusto ko same ng narereceive ko na TPL pag nagpaparegister ako sa LTO nong luma ko car. Gusto ko lang kase makasiguru kung anu nangyari sa binayad ko para sa TPL. Medyo wala na kase tiwala ko sa mga dealer. Salamat

my thoughts..
the sensor that measures engine temp during cold starts, raises the idling rpm to over 1000, and gradually lowers it to below 1000 as the engine approaches working temp. i may be wrong, but i think it measures engine block temp and not oil or water temp.
once the engine has run that day, in the tropics, it remains naturally warmer than when initially started in the morning. that is why, subsequent starts that day, have a much shorter warm-up time.
in my experience, the first time i start my engine in the morning, it takes about 2-4 minutes, depending on what engine i have. on subsequent starts that day, the idling rpm settles down much faster, say, as fast as 30 sec.
i don't think the type of oil being used, significantly changes this warm-up period.

Mga ka tsikoteers, pasali naman po sa thread na ito. matagal na din ako nagbabasa sa thread na ito at madami na akong natutunan. bali may katanungan lang po ako. pang 31 days na po kc ako nag aantay ng 1.6v white pearl na unit wala pa din po dumadating. via bank PO po. mas less priority po ba ang bank PO over in house financing sa mga dealer? doon po sa mga naka white pearl ilang araw po kayung nag antay sa inyo? ano po ba ang mga ginawa ninyo para mapa bilis ang order? TIA...

yup, the viscosity rating etc. i think. I use synth oil as advised to be good for very cold start ups :-) but i don't really wait for the rpm to go down, i drive slow to gain distance while warming up. A good 5 mins from house to main road. :-)

Sir cooljustin_03, hindi po sa dahil bank approved kaya least priority. I think mas priority pa mga yan dahil sa interest rates.
Mataas na siguro ang demand ng Altis versus sa supply, lalo na yung color at variant na gusto niyo. V na pearl white, ganda nyan sir.
Check other dealers po, or kulitin mo na agent mo.
