Hello all. Need some advice!

[jakewebster]

Hello all, just been on this site a few weeks, got my evo a week ago now and love it! Been having a lot of fun!

The only problem i have had is when I start it from cold.  If i put it straight into drive (or reverse) the revs drop and sometimes stalls.  If i give it a bit of revs to stop it stalling it thumps into gear.  If i leave it to warm it is perfect.  There is a slight belt squeak when its warming up, could this be anything to do with it?

Its just had a full service and has a warranty but really want to know if its a problem anyone has experienced?

Will post some pics once i get a sunny day!!

sound's like it need's the throttle body cleaning out mate common problem on v6's.

I've had slightly squeaky belts from time to time, when I mentioned it at my dealers they had a look, said everything was fine and suggested that I put a little bit of WD40 on them when they did it again??

No stalling problems I'm afraid, but Shoggy know's what he's talking about (so he tells us) so I'd check out the throttle bodies.

Does sound like the air inlet valve needs cleaning

My V6 was the same.  I followed the link Tim's posted and it sorted it
