I second this.. Even with BMW's zeal of "save every drop of gas (efficient dynamics)" campaign, I notice a considerable difference in engine AND transmission behavior on immediate driving on a cold start.
Absolutely no issues with 10 to 12 seconds after start, drop off of high idle and down to 800 rpm, everything is predictable. In colder weather (40 and below) I will let it drop down to a normal idle before rolling off.
