So this afternoon I got in me car, did the cold start ritual, pressed the brake and starter button...
Idled to 900 revs instantly. Turned off Dynamic and no rattle.. The car hasn't moved since Sunday so have no idea why the dreaded rattle and 1,500 revs didn't happen.
A wild guess is that the engine is warm enough from having the sun on it all day...

Weird motors these RS3s ..
 
I've noticed the same thing as well, was quite surprised as got used to the high idle for 30s
 
Yep, if the engine block is warm enough, it wont do a cold start.
