Hi guys, my car drives fine other then when it's really cold out. I'll start it up and let it warm up for a minute or two and after I start driving and press the clutch pedal the rpms will start dropping and will either fall on it's face really bad going into the next gear or once in a while will stall out. After that going into 3rd it feels like it has a hesitation until it gets further down the road. It only seems to happen in the very first shifts and only when it's really cold out. Warming it up longer seems to have no effect, it's almost like I just have to get it out of the way. Any thoughts?

i have the same problem every year when it gets cold, i just crank it up a couple times in neutral, and if it still does it, then just wind 1st and 2nd out the first time through, then its gone.

Maybe a IAT sensor problem. Make sure it's indexed and clean.
