What it does...
Cold start is fine. One attempt of turning the key and it fires right up.
If you run the car to temp and shut it off and then try to start it back up right afterwards, it starts right up without any problem.
However, if you let it run to temp, shut it off, and let it sit for 5-10 mins it will take 3 attempts to start.
In my limited knowlege this is what I've come up with as a guess... Some how there is pressure leaving the line and it isn't tripping a sensor some where? Possibly a leaky or faulty fuel injector? I'm not losing any power down the road and it has enver happened with a cold start. Service department claimed it was a fuel pump but that really doesn't make sense as this is a very situational specific temp issue.
Anyone else have an idea? I would like to test something before I just start spending money going down the line replacing parts that aren't to blame.
