Weird Idle issue

Recently it has been cold, shortly it will be put away, just dreading driving my shotty accord. But anyway, when i first start it idles fine, i let it idle for 30seconds or so before i take off, when its cold i dont go above 3k rpms in each gear.
But when i go in reverse it seems like if i dont give it enought gas it wants to stall and when it gets to that point it idles really low, gotta be around 500 rpms, almost like its missing. It only has 45k on it. I give it gas to kick the idle back up and its fine. I guess its just cold and the ecu is trying to compensate for something.

Was just curious if someone has had this slight issue, and what it could possibly be.

Has the car been tuned? or is it the stock map?

it sounds as tho youre just not giving it enough gas becaise if there was an issue, id think that it would do the same thing in first...one thing i learned with the evo is that it was much heavier than my old type s and that it needed a bit more gas to get it going from a stop
