    Very rough startup today, just cold wheather?

    Hopped in the car this moring turned the key but it wouldnt start. The starter was whizzing away but apart from the odd grunt from the engine it just wouldnt turn over. Luckily i was off work so i got out the laptop to check if there was any wrror codes in INPA but there was none.

    Jumped in again and gave it a bit of gas and it eventually turned over but really rough, it conked out when i let the revs down but on the second atemped it stayed ticking over, was really rough for the first 30 seconds but eventually smoothed out. Let the engine warm up and everythig seems ok now. INPA then showed 2 missfires but once cleared all seems normal.

    Have let it cool and its starting normally again, is it just the cold whather or something to keep an eye on?

    First time it failed to start first time since i've had it almost 2 years

    The icv is probably a bit sticky with the weather the way it is
