how's your air filter?

clean your MAF ... A dirty mass air meter can cause a rough idle, decreased performance, and computer codes among other problems. Most can be cleaned with spray electrical contact cleaner.

if you still have problems, clean out your TB with carb cleaner

my alero is doin the same thing when its cold in the morning. My idle bounces pretty good. I just put a cold air intake on my car and did a tuneup like 1,000 miles ago. I'm thinking about using the induction cleaner to clean my throttle body and intake mani. Not sure if anyone else has any info on how to fix this
