Idle / Stalling problems when cold Rapide 2013

Hello all,
I have a problem with a rapide 2013 under warranty?
No error code with OBD said dealer AML Valencia
On 3 occasions the dealer had the car 9 days, they removed and put back /change the air filter, ( but it was done with annual service 15 days ago) nothing else was ever changed. No oxygen sensor no valves, no mass air flow, nothing was updated, they said its clean, but clean does not mean it works well. disapointed at bringing the car again and when i think than AML UK warranty is helping them.

this morning it almost stalled after starting and then it re accelerate like this video.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qkfW...ature=youtu.be

Is it a long job changing the spark plugs? why the warranty does not send an idle valve, mass air flow and oxygen sensor for the dealer to try the first time?

the first time i brought it in, the car was not accelerating alone, it was for a high idle, its when i got it back after the first trial.
so the car is worst now after 3 trials, should i continue going there?

Did you have them perform the flywheel run-down calibration procedure?
