Abnormal Idle?

When I start my IX it will idle at around 1100-1200 RPM's. Then after I drive for a bit it will idle between 800-900 RPM's. Is this normal? Is it because of the engine not being warm? Sorry if I'm being too ****, I just want to make sure its normal.

It sounds very normal to me. When you start your engine is it cold? regardless of the temp I wouldn't worry, it sounds normal to me.

Then there is nothing wrong with your car. Absolutely normal.
