Any ideas here guys? My 3litre gita starts first time about 80% of the time, however the other times it starts on maybe the 3,4 or even fifth turnover of the key. When it does start that time, theres a little bit of smoke out the exhaust. Any thoughts much appreciated. cheers |

Engine check light tell you anything?? Any error codes in the diagnostics menu? Check the spark plugs after it has turned over but not started. Does it smell of raw fuel when it doesn't start? It sounds like it is not firing in those times it doesn't start, and the extra fuel it injects but doesn't burn comes out as the rich smoke when it fires up. |

I have a 2L Gita and sometimes it takes 2 goes for it to crack into life, especially in the morning. Nothing wrong there. |
