Car just decided when its cold it wont idle, i start it up and it will just idle lumpy then cut out, i have to keep the revs on about 1-2min then it will be ok. and randomly when it is warm it will sometimes cut out whilst driving? any ideas??

I had this issue few weeks back and turnt out to be the charge pipe had popped off i couldnt see it as it was under the heat wrap at back of engine. But mine wasnt boosting so maybe yours is an air leak somewhere else just not so big as the one i had or could be a split pipe?
