Hi All,
I'll try and be as to the point as possible with what i'm experiencing with my car as far as starting goes and little random blips.
Bit of background I had the Starter Motor reconditioned about 6months back and it looks like a different/new unit all black. About 3months ago the car started playing up with starting which would happen about once every 2 weeks to about every few days I experience it now.
Symptoms:
- Car cranks, and sounds like it struggles to crank (hydraulic) type sound
- Car has on few occasions stalled soon after startup, say when leaving the street from neutral it would stall although you're not making it purposely stall
- Happens when Hot or Cold randomly
- Haven't ever seen the car at 1500rpm like a cold start should, idles about 800rpm sometimes down to 500rpm even though the idle revs had been adjusted to be at 800.
- On occasions if you're say boosting in any gear and you put the clutch in, it would stall (occurence has decreased since cleaning the ICS)
To do:
- Check codes, followed by clearing the codes, awaiting for it to happen again and then checking the codes
What has been done:
- Cold Start has been cleaned
- Starter Motor has been replaced
- CPS clip has been bypassed by direct wiring
- Fuel Filter has been replaced
- Have driven the car with Injector cleaner for a full tank
Here are the vids of what it is doing, all help from my fellow supramanian's is much appreciated as I don't know what could be causing me this grief since when it starts it starts perfectly fine and drives like a beauty. Holds 10psi and drives very well apart from the starting glitches as mentioned.
Here are the vids:
Failed start followed by good start following turn
Lots of great starts
Thanks in advance guys for your help.

But mine seems different as I have different starting issues.
