'08 stalling on warm startup
I just picked up an '08 G35X. I have only had it a few days and noticed a possible issue. The dealer replaced the battery just before I picked it up on Saturday. I drove it home with no issues. When I went out to move it, it fired up and the rpm's went up and then as they fell, the car stalled out. It did this twice yesterday. It does fine on cold starts but, if I turn it off after it is warm and go to restart, this is where it seems to have the issue. Not sure if this is a common issue, easy fix, or something related to the computer relearning everything due to the battery replacement? The car is under warranty and I'll certainly take it back if the issue persists.
Thanks,
Todd

Clean throttle bodies. Fixed in 5 mins.
Because of how our egr is setup carbon builds up on the hinges of the butterfly. It works fine when the choke is on (cold start), but doesn't get enough gas on a warm start to keep the butterfly open vs the sticky carbon.

Well, I sincerely wish you well with that, but it was pretty much exactly what I was thinking you shouldn't try. It may indeed take care of it, but it can also lead to quite a few problems for people. (Look up "idle relearn failures" and such). Basically, if there's any problems with your drive-by-wire TB's, and the dealer knows you messed with them, they can blame it all on you. I've seen people get stuck with paying for new ones.
