Ok I am having some cold starting issues I will start it up and it will die then i will start it back up and it idles perfectly i looked and i have a green CTS i was told by the previous owner that it has a new 02 sensor and MAF and it looks like it my car just started doing it also. I dont know what it could be it only has 49,xxx miles so i dont think it would be anything major yet. and input would help thank you very much.

 

Have you noticed any electrical issues?
If your battery is acting up then that could cause some of your problems. Its been happening to me lately. Only on a cold start will it die then turn over like nothing happened, I have a feeling that its either the alternator or battery.

 

no I haven't noticed any electrical problems if it is the battery and i change it out will i need to put the code into the radio i dont have that code.

 

let me know if a battery fixes your trouble. i'm having similar issues.

 

haha yah you will definitely need the radio code. You can get the code from the dealer.. And they will charge you for it. So gl.

 

my brothers dash looks like a christmas tree. his check engine light is on, abs light, and traction control (which wont enable). it also says change oil immediately after its changed. im wondering wth is going on

 

My dealer gave me the code for free, just call with your VIN

 

My dealer wanted to charge me 130 bucks and I had to bring the car in.

 

i kninda had the same problem so i thought i t was the battery. so i gt a new 1 de next day . then it still did not fix the problem so i had 2 replace the alternator. which fixed the problem.

 

you can go to any place like AutoZone, Advance Auto, or Napa and have you battery tested and your alternator tested free of charge. There is no reason someone should buy either of those parts for no reason.
