Exclamation 2003 M3 Cold Starting Problems

Hi Everybody,
I am wondering if anybody else is experiencing problems when cold starting the M3 in the morning? My car is idling for a few secs falling below 500 RPM and then it settles.

I took it to the dealership twice, but they could not find a problem. Any feedback is welcome.
Thanks,
P

There is a programming update for the DME to improve cold start running.
