A few days ago I noticed that on EVERY cold start, the rpm's are a little high, after I let the rpm's drop, I put it in gear to find a lot of bucking and sputtering as if it's going to stall.

I think b/c it's drive-by-wire it doesn't have an iac valve... what do you think?

Thanks!

sounds like a bad coil. see if engine gives you a misfire code.

Thank you!

I did leave something out... once the car is warmed up, the bucking and hesitation goes away

PROBLEM SOLVED!

I do thank you for your input. I re-installed the factory airbox and voila... problems gone.

Thanks again

P.S. Can you list items for sale on this forum?
