car dies while idling and rpms jump

Asked by Maher Oct 27, 2018 at 05:54 PM about the 2006 Kia Rio

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My car has a problem. the car rpm goes up and down when i start it at
morning , but when it warms after then the rpm is okay but when the car in
natural then the car dies.
Btw i change the spark plug and ignition coil and throttle body to a new one
but the problem remains. The lamp (engine check) flashes sometimes and
disappears later,
is  there something else that I also have to look at to solve the problem?
