My Corolla does it too.... lol
When I bought the Corolla it had a dodgy thermostat in it so it would not get to temperature, the torque converter would not lock up at all on a 25 min drive to work,...

As above. I have a ZD30 with a manual in it and it sits around the 2500 rpm at 100 Ks or so.

Couldn't do it if it was a Manual ..... only if clutch as slipping when cold .... therefore it must be Auto

Thats normal for an auto, the torque converter wont lock up till it reaches operating temp.

Ditto on my ZD30 auto. Drops revs about 10 mins into my freeway run to work and again coming home.

I take it that it's an auto, if so mine does the same, when the revs drop it your torque converter locking up. Which it won't do until it's warmed up

Hi Goliath.
Is the Trol an auto or manual? If its an auto maybe overdrive is not being engaged until it warms up. That would explain the drop in revs.
If manual then I can't even try to explain it.

Im not a fan of digital as they tend to flicker a bit IMO.
VDO make a good guage, but any of the known brands would work

Hello Guys
In the weekend I was asked to “recover” a very stuck campervan – a 3.5 tonne vehicle down to its axles at the back. Several others had tried but it was wet and the Prado and Vitara...
