    I have had it at two Honda dealers who reported it was operating within spec, but I don't think this is right? Any help appreciated!

    I, too, believe this is normal. My 1991 Civic did the same, as does my 2013MY Euro.
    Honda said motor was designed that way for a rapid warm-up - and it works!

    Hot-idle seems a little fast, though. Mine idles at under 1000RPM.
