When engines are cold, it is usually normal for them to run a little bit rough due to the EGR valve and the timing of the engine with the manifold and components being cold. It takes time to vaporize the fuel to achieve full combustion. The automatic throttle should activate and put the engine at an RPM approximately 1500 to 1800. At this RPM, you should not run the car otherwise you risk losing your transmission in the long run. It may be also wise to tune up your car by checking the spark plugs, the contact points and the timing mechanism. An erratic timing mechanism can give you a rough idle.
