In my case, I start the car, the revs go to around 1500, drop to 1000, then it stumbles and dies. I start it again, it runs fine.
It happened about 4 mornings last week, and 2 afternoons getting ready to come home from work. Afternoons have been okay since. Mornings, iffy.
The dealer just replaced the PCV valve at the last oil change. I should have had it changed at 60,000 for free, but I waited until 79,000 to have it done.
