Default Cold Misfire/Idle rough

My 2003 GLX NBC has developed a miss on cold start that can be felt at idle. Seems to go away as warms up. No CEL. Feels like dropping a cylinder. Anyone experienced this? Has happened the last few cold starts. Has 26000 miles. Just trying to get some idea...you know how the dealer is on intermittent things..."I dunno...cant make it happen" Thanks in advance!!!!

Default to fix it

i have spoke with my dealership as i have the same problem, and if it is cold outside under 40 degrees you should be using 91 or even 89 octane. these gases require a lower burning temp than 93 does. try changing the gas you use until it warms up and then use the 93.
