2008 C300 4 matic
slightly rough idle at initial start up

Hi All
I have a 2008 C 300 4matic with 120K on it. it runs great after its warmed up a little (like after 1 minute) but it runs rough when it first starts up ? a slight skip perhaps ? I found the car overfilled with oil a while back ,drained it then notice the idle at start issue. the car has been excellent. just want to catch something early if I can. seems to be an issue with the cold start only.
Any help on what to check would be great
Thanks
in advance !!!

Sounds like my issue turned out to be in need of a set of new spark plugs......

Mine is a little rough at startup, very slightly shaky, but it does not need warm up. Drive it immediately I don't feel anything rough, even stop at the first traffic light waiting.
