this issue started about a month ago after my car sat for about a week in my driveway while i took my scooter to work. when i start it up after its been sitting overnight, it seems to be like a bogging/misfire untill i touch the gas pedal, and than all is fine. as im backing out of my driveway, i just let it roll out at idle, shift into drive, tap the gas pedal, and its fine. other than that, the car drives perfectly normal. any ideas? i replaced my fuel filter 2 days ago, thinking it might be the problem, but probably not(~35,000 miles on the old one) and no luck. thanks--whitey

Try cleaning the IAC, TB and MAF.

IAC is on the side of the throttle body (TB). remove and get some cleaner in there 2 round holes let it sit for a few then spray it out.
