Cold start problem solved

Post by kp »

Cold start problem solved after TWO cold winters ... I started the expensive way around ... Anyway I changed battery,Ht leads, starter motor ,alternator,plugs ..... Took it to get diagnostic done on it and nothing came up .I came on here and I read it could be the camshaft sensor anyway so I bought that but didn't change it .Then a friend of mine said it could be the air intake sensor and guess what it bloody well was ....to cut a long story short start the cheapest way .

Weird!!

After changing both cam sensors my turned out to be the MAF. Fianlly diagnosed by just unplugging it and saw that i ran better.
