The problem you describe could be result of a few different things; however, I would first check your vehicle's Idle Air Control (IAC) sensor/motor. This sensor/motor is located on your vehicles, throttle body and is easy to access. The purpose of this sensor is to control the car's idle under various operating conditions including ambient temperature. In order for it to function correctly, the internal components must be clean (meaning, little or no carbon build up) and it must be undamaged. Sometimes the IAC can be cleaned; however, if this cleaning procedure is not properly done, the IAC can become damaged. This sensor is also sometimes called the "Cold Start" sensor. A new IAC will cost $50-$100. My guess is your IAC needs to be cleaned or replaced. Good Luck!

Test both the manifold air temp sensor and the coolant sensor. If either are out of range it can alter the cold start idle.
