dies when cold
 
OK so one day i decided to check my ghost codes and as i expected found knock sensor code..so resetted the ecu and ordered it online...
the weird thing the next day in the morning turned the car on and it turned normal and after i put it in Reverse it started boggin down and died...same thing wehen i put it on Drive...
today it did same thing alot...but when i warmed it up it doesn't do it...

Pull out the codes sounds like Crankshaft POS sensor

Cold operation problems usually point to the engine coolant temp sensor.

Call some local auto parts stores in your area. The part can't be more then 30 bucks.

If you have the stock airbox, you'll have to remove some parts (see attached photo). Once that's out of the way, it's impossible to miss.
