Default Any advice please

Hello people,

My car doesn't like starting when cold! Is this the norm? Its fine when warm but from cold can be a bit of a pain!
Sometimes even cuts out!

Thanks

no it is not the norm mine fires up every time when cold and idles faster for a couple of minutes.

my guess would be a coolant temp sensor giving incorrect readings so cold start not coming on.

any more details on the car year,engine,mods etc?
