Starting Your Cl Or Any Car Question?
Have A Question, I Already Got My Tune Up About 1k Miles Ago, Changed The Plugs, Oil, Transmission. But How Come When I Start My Car Sometimes It Seems To Hesitate Especially When Its Cold, I Have 01 Cl-s W/ 85k. Its Not As Smooth To Start It. Could It B The Starter Or Alternator? Thanks

Damn dude you capitalized every beggining letter in that post...
It hesitates because it needs more gas to start is considering its getting cold now. Every car that i have ever had has done it.

it's getting colder here but I have not noticed any major changes in how long it takes the car to start. it has been down in the 20's when I have started my car

. My father taught me this a long time ago and I swear by doing it everytime I start my car. Not only for the fuel injection to get primed but also for the oil pump to pump an inital amount of oil for start-up. It erks me when people just put the key in and turn to start without pausing for two seconds.

Agreed. Wait a second or two then hit the starter. Should work fine. As injectors age they can lose pressurization when not run for a few hours. Give the fuel system time to pressurize and you should be fine. All of the cars I have owned have done this with age.
