Default Cold Idle?

In the morning it takes me a few times to start my car, when it does kick on, the rpms stay around 500 and then it dies and i gotta restart it, it'll be sluggish for the first few minutes but once its warmed up it idles perfectly.

anyway i can fix this?

Try replacing the EACV valve, sounds like it is sticking.

IACV too. Try cleaning it up or swapping it w/ another before you blow some $$$ on a new one though.
