Your motor is about to blow up man go drain the oil out of the motor and buy some brake fluid fill your motor with that let it run 1 hour drain it then add oil again your motor might not blow then

^what an asshole^
you need to clean your iacv and fitv, very easy project and will save u a couple hundred. If that doesnt work then you want to use the brake fluid. lol

It's seriously just the change in air temp.... cars act different depending what the temperature is outside during a "cold" start.

have you cleaned em? did it work? if not see if you can just replace the gasket. it is one of the two of these, they are there to help warm up the motor and hold it at a higher idle till things warm up. when they start getting gunked up they stop working causing it to surge
