Hello,

A problem has just started with my 2003 2.7T. Initial "cold" starts require 6 to 10 turns of the ignition key to get the car to idle without stalling. After the lucky "start", the car idles very rough for about 2 minutes - pressing the gas during this time actually has the effect of dropping RPM's toward stall and then it revs go up.

To make it even more peculiar, once the car is running it will restart perfectly with a single turn of the key unless left to sit for a long period (e.g. 5+ hours).

Has anyone had this issue and if so, how did you resolve? Anyone have any thoughts on what this could be?

Thanks!

 

Is anybody on these forums, did I not write in the correct section? Any help at all would be appreciated.

Don't have a solution or answer though

Going to try new spark plugs.
