analog dashboard gauges do not activate until about 30 seconds after car starts

What is your question?

All dashboard analog gauges do not activate after the car has been running for about 30 seconds. My BMW mechanic is stumped on a possible cause. This occurs every time I start the car and has been like this for over two years.
