    Cold Start Issues...continued...

    For the last month my car (STG 2)has a hard time starting in the morning. It will crank for a while then start up and die out. It will do this a few times and then finally idle. Once it idles if you give it gas it will sputter/boog then rev up. Once warm the car run normal. It gets significantly worse when the temperature drops lower. The car will start right up after it is warm. I first ran stp gas treatment through it. No difference was made. Yesterday, we vag'd the car. There was an intermittent 02 and cylinder 3 misfire code. I had changed the 02 in the summer and never cleared out the code. We cleared them out and they did not come back up after running the car for a while. Does anyone have any ideas as to what it could be? I have no CEL. Could it be a CTS or a problem with the EVAP system? I got a wiff of gasoline driving. But, I think it maybe the shitty cars infront of me. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Merry Christmas!

    Did you fix the misfire? Most likely its the misfire, on my brothers m3 when his coilpack went, on a cold start the car died a couple times till it started to warm up a little once it was replaced never happened again. I know they are two different cars but, I would fix the misfire if its still there and see what happens. Goodluck
