vim Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Hi all! I was wondering if any would be able to help me with my problem. My R32 is having a hard time starting when you leave it for several hours but when it's warmed up I try to turn it off then start it goes fine. I have changed injectors and all 6 coil packs. What can be the problem? Pls help. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/388587-r32-wont-start/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

vim Posted January 17, 2012 Author Share Posted January 17, 2012 The car is stock just has pod filter. The problem is it just won't go through when I start it and most of the time I need to step on the a accelerator to help it. Tnx.

blind_elk Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Maybe the cold start valve isn't working. Presuming the RB20 - the cold start valve is the little torpedo-looking thing under the throttle body.
