When car is cold vtec will NOT work. That's how it's designed.
Check your oil. Be sure it's not low. That will also cause VTEC to not engage.
-- Also, the spool could be dirty, remove the VTEC solonoid from the head and check the spool (metal screen) for dirt, replace it. It's about 12 bucks from Honda.
