So just like everyone else I have a hard time starting the car, it always cranks but it takes 2-4 times cycling the ignition to get it to fire up (I do have P0171 lean code and did some diagnosing and I’m certain it’s not getting enough fuel and already have a fuel pump on the way) and it doesn’t fire right away, after a couple cycles it takes like 8 seconds of cranking to start and then shakes and feels like it’s about to stall for a couple seconds before leveling out. Anyways I’m gonna change the fuel pump and hopefully that’ll be solved.
CURRENT ISSUE. First time this has happened, The car randomly wouldn’t start this morning, at first there was no response when turning the key, power on but no crank, no click, nothing. Locked and unlocked the car incase the aftermarket security/remote start was glitching out, and I got a response from turning the key but I’ve never heard that noise in my life, it was like a grinding/electrical static type of noise, sounded like it was coming from the engine itself not the starter. But it didn’t crank/turnover, tried it 3 times and it made that noise everytime but didn’t attempt to crank/turnover, then on the 4th try it just fired right up INSTANTLY, like the second I turned my key (has never started so easily) and didn’t stumble or shake Just started up like it’s suppose to.. I drove to work and haven’t tried starting again but I will update after work if it starts or does this again. The video is crap, I Will record a better video if it does it again
so my question is has anyone else had this happen? Sudden no start with that weird sound?? Then starts up better than it ever has before? Any idea what the hell that sound is??
