    Angry Rough Start = Service! Light??

    Hey guys,

    I read through a few posts but really didn't get anywhere and I don't think that I will until I get someone to VAG my car but I just want to get some ideas.

    So a month ago I performed light maintenance on my car.
    04 b6 1.8t Q
    73k
    Oil Change m1 0-w40
    Air Filter
    Cabin Filter
    Spark Plugs NGK PFR6Q

    So the car has run perfectly for the past few weeks until this morning.

    I get into the car and it starts up rough like it's not getting enough fuel. It barely starts and then the Service! icon pops up. I drive for a while and it's fine. Then I go to start it again and the same thing happens.

    I'm trying to decide what it could be. For one I didn't gap the plugs anymore than there were out of the box but I don't think that would be an issue. Two, it's was a little chilly here in MD last night so I am not sure if that would make a difference. I have the "R" CP's in my car and they have not given me any problems.

    I am thinking that it's the Fuel Pump but I am not sure. I need to VAG the car but I have no access to a VAG right now so I'm SOL for the time being.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Go by an Autozone and they will scan it for free.
