I'm most worried about these sort of revs before the oil pressure is established and oli properly circulated i.e. wear. None of my other fuel injected engines have ever reved above say 1250 rpm on start - that's meant to be one of the advantages of processor control - you can control these things.
How is idling the engine at 3000 rpms any different then gently driving the car and cruising at 3000 rpms?

It's not a problem, I wouldn't worry about it.

Try resetting the ECU

Run 5w-30, or 0w-30 in the winter.

Mine jumps to around 2,200 initially at cold startup, then quickly decends toward idle.

coldest it's been so far was -8 celsius. I started the car, revs were at 2500rpm for a couple of seconds and then dropped to 2k as usual
