escape idle problem

I recently had my PCM flashed due to the deceleration safety recall. My engine now revs to 2200 rpm when I start it even if the engine is hot. It goes down to 750 rpm after about 30 seconds. My engine before the recall, reved from 1200 to 1400 rpm when starting. My dealer and ford tell me 2200 rpm is normal but I think it is too high. Any ideas on how to fix this problem.

Yeah, really Chicagorandy . Thing is, I searched through the forum as far back as 2009, and gobs of folks would come to the group and ask questions but never report back with what they found or what the actually repair was. Loads of open ended help requests. Folks get a lot of help here, then disappear and never tell anyone what fixed their problem. Doesn't help the rest of us and only fills up the forums with unhelpful noise. I sent a bunch of messages to folks yesterday to try and get them to post when they solution was, to help others in the future.
