Default crv taking time to warm up

My 98 crv is in good condition, but it takes time to warm up. The temperature gauge slowly reaches a little down the halfway mark when I start it. It did not do it before. Before when I start it, it use to warm up quickly. Not a big problem though.

Bad thermostat.

Replace along with the ECT sensor.

I have the same issue with my 98crvawd, especialy during cold winter months. I still warm up, temp gauge takes a while. Id rather go off my rmp's, let the engine warm up and let the oil circulate. When my rpm's drop form 1.5 to 700 rpm, i know Im done. When the iac valve warm up, you can feel it.
