Title: hot starting problem 2.6 cdx auto 51 reg
Post by: cobba on 06 August 2009, 20:41:30

mine starts  ok in the morning.starts ok at 5 pm at eos,i drive 8 miles home,stop to get a paper and then it wont start.turns over ok,just no spark.if i wait 5-10 minutes it fires up no problems.all dashboard lights come on and go off ok and no warning/fault light on.car runs and start normally inbetween this problem
  is this a sign that the coil pack is on its way out?
  has anyone got any ideas or come across this before?
