Had this problem for over 3months already, took it to the dealer twice! quick run down,
98% of the time, takes me 3trys to start the car, which i have to add gas to start it up, & if it starts up, it sounds like a QUAD ! not power at the crank what so ever,

when i went to the dealer they replaced all listed below..

The first time i went they replaced--

Fuel Module Assembly
IGN Module
Spark Plugs

Still was misfiring & no power at crank sometimes..

The second time i took it they replaced --

P0606 ECM Condition
Replace PCM. as well as perform crankshaft off set releran procedure

interal failure of ignition module-replaced
battery

& starter drags, may have bad starter Which they didnt bother to replace..

=====

Results,

Still misfires, doesnt start up, No power..
takes 3-5tries to start now, need to add gas also..


Any ideas on what may be causing this? im sick of going back and it not being fixed

 

Well the flashing check engine light just means massive misfire(catalyst damaging levels of misfire)

Is it only seeting a P0300 or is setting indvidual codes? (301, 302, 302, 304) Does it set any other codes?

My first guess would be that its not actually a failure but a bad connection at the ICM. It could very easily be a coil assembly.

 

il ask the dealer tomorrow, im taking it back in the morning

but they honestly suck at finding out whats causing this
