So here is what happened:

As everyone knows the country has been battered with cold weather. Its about 15 degrees here in nyc. Anyway, i put my car into neutral and roll it out onto my driveway. Then i put it in park and start the car. I let it warm up for 10 min with lights on and heat on low. After the 10 min of idling i shut it off and go back inside to get something.

15 min later i return to the car and start it. It shuts off after 3sec of running engine. Then i restart it and its running like nothing happened.


Anyone know what could have happened?

Im pretty sure its not my battery. I purchased a optima red top 3 months back and this is the first time this event occured.

 

sounds like nothing i wouldnt worry about it

 

My car has been acting a little funny the past two days, I would try to remote start it and it would just click then I try it again and it would start. But then again it is -25 here in Michigan this morning. Probably just something stupid.

 

my remote start has lost the range in the cold. its like 100 ft now.

 

15, ha. . .. woke up to -29 yesterday, -24 today. . .. not to mention the windchills at -50

 

I am in Louisiana so we don't get too cold here but in even moderately cold weather (32 ish) my GXP will tend to act a bit quirky like that. Nothing to worry about though.

 

that has happened to me twice. nothing to worry about. i had it checked out and they said it was a delay from the fuel pump being the most likely cause. which can be from starting it throwing it in drive and hitting the gas.

 

Glad to hear that you guys thinks it nothing.

 

I had this problem a long time ago; but my car would shut off while running, i.e. driving on the street. Took it to the dealer and they did nothing. The problem "magically" went away

 

All I have noticed in the cold is that my remote start range is reduced abit, maybe 25-50'?? Have to go out an extra couple yards to make sure it starts and the lights stay on at work, on cold days at least.
