Replace your thermostat...Thats usually the problem when this occurs....Goodluck...

Testimonial: "thanks man"

    That^. Sticking thermostat. If you look at a thermostat it's a little wax pellet that expands when hot enough to open the valve (and circulate fluid through the radiator). Sometimes they stick for whatever reason (contaminants, corrosion, wear and tear, manufacturer defect)

What does the diagnostic code P2181 mean on a Subaru Impreza WRX?

this is a coolant performance code. Usuallly sets this code if the connector was left unhooked to the coolant sensor or the thremostat is stuck open. By any chance do you have a gauge that seems to be on the cold side ??

Ive got subaru legacy 2.0 w reg the revs are eratic when idle in

If this happens when cool/cold and goes away after reaching operating temp, this is normal. If it does not, the vehicle can have a re-flash of the ecu at your local dealership.
