You need to find a better class of mechanic. Maybe one with a scanner that can tell you that you have a security or fuel supply issue.

If this is happening only when the engine is cold you need to drop the car off the night before your appointment. Then the tech can plug into the car's computer and see what's going on when the problem is happening. Personally, I'd take it to your local GM dealer and explain what's going on, drop it off the day before, and see what they come up with. Could be as simple as a bad electrical connection that only happens when the engine is cold. They'll be able to find it using their scan tool to see what sensor(s) aren't reading correctly. Jim
