Message	except it WILL stall when its cold. After start up it sounds fine for maybe 20-30 seconds, and then something switches like a kitchen lightswitch, and the car goes stupid and runs rough till it stalls completely. I also have problems driving when the engine is cold, it wants to stutter and stumble for a good while. When warm, it does idle better, but not near perfect. The idle will go from a bit below 800rpms and slowly but obviously climb close to 1000rpms, then another lightswitch is flipped and it goes back to 800rpms. Rinse and repeat for as long as it idles. Let me know what you find out as I would love to solve my issue as well and it seems they are somewhat similiar. My PCVs are almost 5 years old, with 50-60,000 on them.
