Thanks for reading my post so quick..
Yes thats exactly the problem i heard its a regular enough problem. When its idle it needs gas or it will cut out happens when its cold then when it warms up it behaves a bit better but not much..

Thanks G

If its a low idle is your problem its not the throttle body , the throttle body is prone to warping and drawing air therefore as the air leaking in to the body post butterfly is not controlled and you will have a high idle ------ not low , I think your problem is related to a sensor , check all connections as the MPi wiring looms are notorious for poor connections and cracking . if the problem still persists there are a few more checks I will advise but lets start with the basics.
