Scan it for fault codes first.
It may just need a TB clean :smiley:
-
should think its just because your driving off while still on choke mine is very jerky while but fine after the choke cuts out :smiley:
-
as it rich said its worth scanning for fault codes, but also worth doing a Throttle Body clean as its a straight forward and easy job to do.
Could be numerous things that could cause it like a faulty coilpack, temp sensor etc etc
Is your car running a CAI as from past experience come cold weather time these can frost up and cause problems.
