When I first start the car, it drives fine... after about five minutes the car reaches normal operating temperatures and it starts sputtering and even dies on occasion. If I drive it for about 15 minutes... the problem resolves itself. I just had a tune-up, injector cleaning, and replaced fuel filter. Can anybody help?

i think you may be running rich based on the stalling. does the car get bogged down and then stall? if so the air fuel ratio may be rich- a fuel problem. is the sputtering you mentioned hesitation or pops, like backfires?

do you have a check engine light on? when was the last time you had your spark plugs changed? did you have this problem before the tune up?
