I've had random hard starts (summer/winter) since the car had 40000km on it. The dealership replaced fuel pump at 40000km in the tank. This winter I've had 3 times where it takes about 5 minutes of cranking (on and off) untill car fires up. Last night I fired her up...been sitting in a garage for a week and it started and ran no problem, today..wife goes to take the car and no start, I get home and crank it for about 5 min (on and off) until it finally started to kick and then fire up...what is going on? Anybody have any ideas? Car now has 107000 km's on it and has always had oil changed at dealer and serviced there....dual mass flywheel was replaced 7000 km ago but I don't think the 2 are related. Car kinda chuggs when cold too.
