When car is cold in the morning it does not want to move off the line....

it's really weird. first I thought that the clutch needed to warm up but that can't be because it did not do this when I first put the clutch in. It's like I try to take off and it doesn't want to move, I have to ride the freaking clutch and it's hella rough but after a couple minutes it starts getting better and when it's completely warm is smooth as glass. what could that be? It's like off the line there is some sort of hesitation or something like that but only when the car is fresh cold in the morning for a couple minutes..

Any suggestions???

I hate to laugh, but that's hilarious. Mine does the EXACT opposite. I wish I could help you

lol that's why I'm stumped, the car usually runs good cold and then messes up when it's hot but mine is the friggin opposite. Anybody???

Seems simple, but could your IAT sensor be bad? Maybe the computer has it in a bypass mode that is set to mimic normal operating temps.... Just a thought.

I actually replaced my IAT recently so I doubt that is a problem. Hmm I'm gong to try to go back to a previous tune that I have and see if it helps.

Anything else????

EDIT: how would I check what you are saying about the computer? if i hooked up freescan would it tell me anything???
