I've been searching around, and realize that the engine on the S tends to start hard after a night out in the cold. I first noticed mine doing it this winter. But now the weather's a LOT warmer, and every morning my engine still has a difficult time turning over.

My car has less than 40K miles on it, so I'm not really sure what it could be...any help would be very much appreciated.

 

Try resetting the ECU.

 

Do a load test on your battery. You may be in need of a new one.

 

Do you have your original battery? In CA you are lucky to get three years out of a battery, the heat cooks them. The OEM battery isn't that great to begin with.

 

hard starting like ? cranks forever ? cranks slow ?starts but idles funny ?
I would check your injectors ohm them out should be 10-13ohms if injector is leaking down could cause a flooding condition at start up.

 

Not if you are in Nor Cal right by the ocean
