Default Idle issues

When I start my '03 350z when it is cold ...the idle is fine when it come back down from the initial crank. When the car is warm the car dies immediately after the initial cranking and starting of the engine..I have to nudge the accelarator for a second then it will idle ok.....any ideas??

There is usually a couple reasons why it could be doing that. 1. not enough fuel 2. ecu messing up 3. senor going bad if there is one for that. I recommend going to the stealership and they hook it up to a monitor to see what is going on.

It could be a number of things. Take it to Empire Nissan and ask for Frank and tell him I referred you and he will take care of you.
