Hi guys,
My DC5 seems to have a hot start problem. When the vehicle is starting from cold it starts first time, everytime, but when up to normal operating temperature, and then switched off for say 10-15 minutes. Then restarted, it won't fire up, unless my foot is flat out on the accelerator pedal. Only then will it chugs into life. I've carried out a quick OBD 2 testing and it looks to be fine... The only thing that looks abit iffy is the Air intake temp sensor, possibly 10C+ ambient temperature, could this be making it too lean to start when hot???
Has anyone else suffered from a similar thing? would you please enlighten me?
Cheers,
