Brief rough idle on cold start
Anybody experience a 2-3 second rough idle on morning cold start. It is not right when the car starts it is about 3-5 seconds after start. The car is in the garage and night temps have been about 55 so it is not a COLD COLD start. I thought there was an eartquake the first time it happened. Any help appreciated...it may not be anything to worry about but who knows.

I crank up the heated seats and the climate control to "HI" when it's a chilly 60 degrees F in the winter mornings. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

I've had this from day one. But if I pause between "engine on" and "engine
start" for about 5seconds (long enough for the DSC test to complete) i
don't get this. I think fuel is primed or something. someone can
better explain. :smile:
