Engine not stable soon after starting but after temperature rises about five minutes then engine idle steadily.
It behaves the same after parking for sometime as long as temperature is at zero
We have scanned and cleared all errors but can not figure out why this behavior

Please advise

Cleared all errors?

That doesn't fix anything. Malfunction codes are there to help you diagnose the issue. Erasing them just erases all the diagnostic info.

What were the exact code numbers?
