My Lexus LS400-1990 is very slow warming-up. The cooling fan is start immediately with starting engine. And fuel consumption is abnormal (too much). Also the RPM is about 1600 until warming.

Is that normal?

What is the reason?

Indeed, I was have the same problem (slow warm up) Need more than 20 minutes .. I tried to put piece of cardboard in front of radiator to minimize air quantity blowing by main mechanical fan .. Also I checked the Thermostat, by put it in a boiling water, (its opened with no problem..and its closed when put it in cold water). But I observed a very small piece of the rubber ring is broken, and when Thermostat closed at cold state, its remaining to leaks some water through the closed gate, just I removed all that rubber ring and that makes the gate closing completely .. Then I return it back in its hose .. Its work ... Now I need about 6 minutes only to warm up to the normal state and return the RPM to 800 from 1400. :rolleyes:
