Why does my vehicle RPM go up and down during cold start ups? And then the RPM level goes back to normal setting.

several things could cause this. i would start by cleaning throttle body and idle air control valve. possible faulty coolant temp sensor.

I had the same problem and i spent 4 months with it, after replacing a couple parts that werent it, it ended up being the M.A.P. sensor in the end once i put the new map sensor the problem went away completely
