Take to someone with vcds tell them what's happening with her and you want a adaption and realignment done on the throttle body that should sort it out takes about 10 minutes with a vcds that sort out the right air and fuel mixture sure there was a guy on YouTube that had the same problem but with a vw
-
So was it the throttle body in the end

You could also try wait until the car starts idleling pull the plugs one by one conect the coil plug and check the spark see if it's strong if it is move on to the next one and so on if thay are all good the you ruled out coils, coils wiring,and plugs

If your going too check the pcv just take the oil filler cap off see if that make a difference she may be on its way out normally you get a whistling sound after a while, if no difference I'll be more looking at coil plugs and the wireing spark plugs as the car starts fine but once warm it goes lumpy
