Question AU2 V8 Running Rough on Start Up

Hi All,

I have a 01 AU V8 Fairlane which seems to have a problem on cold start up.
The car starts and idles perfectly but once you engage drive, the car misses and coughs under low to mid throttle for about the first 200m.

It doesn't seem to matter if you let the car warm up or not.

To date, the following has been replaced.

TPS
Injectors
O2 Sensors
Leads
Iridium Plugs
Cats

The car has 135,000 kays on it and other than that drives perfectly. On warm start up or even after the car has been sitting for 2 hours- everything is fine. It's only happening on cold start once the engine has load on it in drive.

Any ideas as to what could be causing this? I thought TPS- but this hasn't fixed it!!
