Mystery Engine Problem...

RE: Mystery Engine Problem...
My problem was similar, except it would get worse with drive time, instead of better like yours. I replaced all 8 of my coils with new ones and it went away.
It almost sounds as though it could have an intake gasket bad, or something similar causing a vacuum leak. After the car heats up and everything expands, it runs fine. When it's cold and running rough, spray some water from a squirt bottle (or something like that) around where the intake bolts to the heads, and see if that makes it run smoother for a couple seconds. Don't soak it with a hose, you dont need to flood it with water.
Just a thought.
