Hi can please someone help me, I have a 2010 CX-7 starts fine, but runs lumpy for a couple of seconds then dies. Does it a couple of times then it is fine. Drives well otherwise. Any help would be appreciated

is the check engine light on? what is your mileage? have you replaced things like spark plugs, air filter, etc?

my first suggestion is to check your idle air control valve and clean that out, but before you do anything scan for codes if you have a CEL.
