My 200 does a few odd ones it will rise to 1500 then on anther start ups it may hover at 1200-1000-900 etc depending on the outside atmospheric temperature as the ECU gets the data from the temp sensor in the door mirror to calculate what Air/Fuel ratio is needed for the cold start but don't thrash the engine when its cold let it warm up gradually as the coolant pump is electronically assisted to better control cold engine temp

Hello Pedro,
Thanks in advance for your response , mine sometimes goes up to 1900 revs and then drops straight to 1100 revs but this is only when cold starting in the morning . But do I understand correctly that the temperature sensor is in one of the outside mirrors?
