Cold start issue has anyone ever encountered an issue with your car not wanting to start in cold weather? Sometimes if I sit in the car and pump the gas pedal two or three times it will kick over, and other times it just refuses to start all together. I'm not sure what the problem is but it is quite irritating. Thanks to anyone that can help.

That is definitely not normal. I have the same exact car you do and it kicks right up, no matter what the temperature. Unfortunately, I don't know what to tell you, but I bet someone on here will. I don't think you should be pumping a fuel injected car though.

I'm just doing what works. I really am clueless as to what is keeping it from starting. I can hear the fuel pump kick on when the car is cranking so I dont think it is the pump. I put a bottle of injector cleaner in the car last night before I went to bed and this mourning im sitting at the house because my car wont start.
