Nah... Robert Hofland,
The security key either works or it does not...
If the "DEALER" actually has a MECHANIC around...
That would a NICE (albeit unlikely).
YOUR Dealer ...
(In my opinion: needs a little integrity and / or a brain)...
Your can get "
FREE" reads to get the
Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) pulled out
of your On Board Diagnostic System...
Don't buy anything... ESPECIALLY not
Oxygen sensors...
just get the codes READ-OUT...
Come back here... We have some pretty good experience...!!
>> If it only does this when it is cold...
>> or when it has been standing...
Point to completely different troubles... but both in your
FUEL SUPPLY.
Getting those codes is PARAMOUNT.
Exhaust shops, parts stores... even some mechanics...
If it is something simple... You might be wise just to get
it fixed... or diagnosed & fix it yourself...
Pretty sure you are BETTER OFF
not letting the
"dealer" continue at VERY BEST... being incredibly
INCOMPETENT... dishonest... (creep... etc.
(in my opinion)).
Try it... Big savings... You will be proud.
