cold start

when i start my car in the morning it runs at like 300rpm's with the oil light on for a few seconds then jumps right up to idle "1000rpms"

is this a problem, what could it be?

When did it start, how long has it been doing this and have you changed anything recently?

idle air control motor, its what helps with your car being able to idle. Its on the throttle body below the inlet, its a black cone sorta shaped sensor with a plug on it with 3 small screws.
