dont know anyone have this problem wiht their car, but my car some times don't start>>>...

the green light with the key/car lights up (this light lights up when a key with out memory trys to start the car), some times it starts then shuts down right away, some times it doesn't start at all.

if i wait until the turbo timer shuts off, i can start my car again.....

i have a auto start alarm with turbo timer in it already... might that be the problem?? i thought this problem was from the spark plugs and spark plug wires.....

after i put on the 3' test pipe today, it didn't start, but waited and it started again.... it almost seems that every time i get a new mod the car does that....... or some times it just dont start....

could it be the computer is fucking up?

any ideas guys? please help =0)

Sounds like a problem with your TT... Could be that you tried to restart and the TT won't let you or that your alarm is tied to your TT and won't allow you to restart until it's off.

It sounds like the auto start screwing with the computer. The auto start doesn't send the signal like the key does, and that could be "locking out" your immobilizer for the next time you try to start it. I have seen a handful on Mits' and other makes, most caused by alarms.

also , before you take it to the dealer install back the stock cat , to see if thats the problem .. OBD2 cars can be a pain since there sensitive went messign with obd equipment...
