The car idles fine when I first start it then once it warms up it starts idling rough and then dies. Ill wait a couple minutes and it fires right back up and then does the same thing again.
Do you
have the same problem?

Tried that it works better but it will still die everyonce in a while.

Inspect and test the throttle position and manifold absolute pressure sensors to include cleaning out the EGR valve.
