HelloThe engine and automatic transmission in this vehicles drive train are fully electronically controlled by a computer called the PCM and TCM (Power Train Control Module, Transmission Control Module). When a problem like this or other drive-ability related problems occurs the computer stores a record of the problem (there are of course some exceptions to this, like the fuel pump, engine coolant temperature sensor and MAF sensor for instance) in the form of a fault code in its memory, to read these fault codes you must have the systems memory scanned with a special tool. Once the fault code(s) are read you then must perform the appropriate diagnostic testing to find and resolve the problem(s) DO NOT REPLACE ANY PARTS UNTIL A TRAINED TECHNICAIN HAS DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM TO AVOID SPENDING YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON PARTS THAT MAY NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM

Remove the wheels
Stick a punch or something sturdy in a rotor cooling hole so it jams against the caliper. Loosen the 8 nuts that can be accessed through the 8 holes in the hub flange.

drivers side second cylinder from the front... 2468 on left side

Probable broken spring within the lock. Remove the door panel to access the lock. These things are held together with deformed tabs, but with a little grinding of the tabs, they can be pried apart. It might be easier to find another lock (new or used) instead of dealing with a pile of parts and a tensioned spring. The lock could be held together with a quick pass of a welder on each tab. Good luck!

The problem is probably manyfold - a general deterioration of several aspects that add up to poor cold starting, a time that makes greater demands of the systems than any other time and only checking A to Z and repairing as you go will restore reliable cold starting. A cold engine needs a good cranking speed without depriving the ignition system of enough current to produce fat blue sparks at the spark plugs. Worn spark plugs require considerably more voltage to make a spark... The fuel system is next - fuel must be presented into the cylinder in a form that will readily burn and that means there should be sufficient fuel in a finely atomised spray so ensure the fuel pressure is correct and the injector spray patterns are good and the temperature sensors are ok. The engine condition is important, especially the intake valve seatings...
