cold start issue

Car is a 1987 300E automatic. When I first start the car in the morning, if the air temp is over 70 degrees or so, the car idles rough for a couple minutes, and it idles at the same 550 rpm idle speed that it has when the engine is fully warmed up. If the air temp is 60 degrees or cooler when I first start the car, the idle is smooth and it idles at around 800-900 rpm. I assume there is a cold engine start mode on the car that is suppoed to bump the idle up a little and richen the mixture, but on my car it does not seem to come into play unless the ambient temp is fairly cool. Anyone have ideas on what this could be? It is not a big deal, but it it's a relatively cheap/easy fix I want to try it. Thanks Andy
