My newly acquired TL with almost 150M is exhibiting stalling/stuttering issues when driving the first few blocks in the AM. Seems to want to cut out like a bad fuel delivery or intermittent spark issue. Was having some trans shifting issue I am also looking into, but this seems more computer or spark related. Just stutters like it is going to stall. If I gas it, feather the pedal it (I want to believe it) prevents stalling, but it does feel like it has a mind of its own--like a sensor issue.

Seems to go away after warm.
Any ideas?

Have you cleaned your throttle body or idle air control valve

Hey, thanks for the quick reply!. No I have not but that sounds totally logical. Just getting to know this car. Hopefully that is easy to get to. Would running a can of seafoam do any good at this point?

If not those then replace the ECT sensor, especially if it runs Ok when at operating temperature..
