This happened on mine after the engine was rebuilt following a broken valve spring.
Essentially the car would stall when cold unless you kept giving it a little throttle, pretty much as you describe.
The garage suggested it would clear itself after a few cycles i.e. Start cold, drive turn off, start cold, drive etc etc. Sure enough after a few days it was fine again.

Has anyone painted the silver boot levers next to the driver's door? They seem to be kicked around pretty good on the cars I've seen.
I tried painting mine but they weren't the same. I ended up replacing them. In the UK the two levers cost £45 each but have made a big difference to the interior.

Hi thanks for the thought but this does not affect and of the cabin carpet just the little strip on the bottom of the door around the speaker. I'm gonna do some more inspecting but I am really at a loss with this. I do know that there was a little water on the speaker housing in the door when I removed the panel so I am going to go through the side view mirror mount. I'll post what I find incase some else should run into this.
Mine has the same problem, I understand it is quite a common issue and is caused by a failure of the waterproof membrane in the door.
Mine's booked in for a new membrane in a couple of weeks.

I would REALLY appreciate a DIY
and an idea of total cost
I am VERY interested in doing this on my '99 c2!!!!
please give all the info you can...
Looks fantastic, but....... if you were going to do this now, might it be worth considering updating the look to a 997 with those fantastic single lights - somebody on www.porscheclubgbforum.com is doing his now.

Thanks for all the replies.
I'll get it checked over.

The Aircon on my MY99 996 doesn't seem to be anywhere near as cold as any other car I've had.
It blows well and the climate control seems to work because it does control the level of the blowing automatically.
The air coming through the vents is cooler than the outside but it's not ice cold.
Is this normal?
Thanks

Would you mind sending me the information too please.
A very capable friend is going to fit rear park sensors for me and I would like to be sure the bumper is taken off properly so that it will all go back OK.
Cheers

Did you ever solve your problem or does anybody have any advice. I have a similar problem and I'm struggling to find any answers.
Cheers
