The service people are spouting nonsense. If you are getting 15 km/l, why should it come down to 12 and continue from there?

When engine is started, it would consume fuel. How much fuel is consumed would depend on how long the engine is running.

There are but this is available only from the manufacturer and different engine has different fuel consumption per minute at idle, which could also be different depending on the idling speed.
