Hi Richard! The P050D code refers to a problem with the cold start idle control system. Specifically, it indicates that there is an issue with the idle air control system, which controls the engine's idle speed during a cold start.
When the engine is cold, the idle air control system is responsible for ensuring that the engine stays at the proper idle speed until it warms up. If the system fails or malfunctions, it can cause the engine to idle too high or too low, which can result in stalling, rough running, or other drivability issues.
We discuss this code further in our blog. You can read it here.
Hope this helps!
