For the year that I have owned my t2 it's been fun, not many problems and most of the ones that I have had to fix were simple. Now, however, it will start fine warm or even hot, but will be a pain in the ass to start if its cold (about as cold as when frost starts to form on the glass) and I have to crank it about 7 to 8 times at about 40 seconds a shot then let the starter cool back off before it starts. After it starts it runs like a champ no hesitation and it revs up fine, drives fine, but just a pain in the ass to start. After a lot of searching it looks like I am going to change out the coolant temperature probe. Is there any thing else that it might be? I would love the help, as I want to drive it back and forth to work and not need a starter in another 2 weeks, I'm just glad its not my DD. Thanks in advance for the help.

do you have a check engine light?



if not, your t2's just a touch low on compression, nothing to worry about they all suck at cold starting

its a s4 so no check engine light
