My tuner mentioned it burns slower while cold and the missing issue is happening in stock and tuned vehicles. So either let it warm before you drive it or see if your tuner can tune it out. Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk Yeah I'd say that's my issue. I've using nothing but BP & for roughly 2 months every cold start is a real dog for about 5 seconds. Thanks BP Noticed my economy isn't as great lately either. have a a big drive coming up. Will put a tank of something else in & Report back Edited 14/04/16 12:11 PM by FiftyOne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to think Shell was the devil but so far it appears like the BP isn't performing so great. Leaving the car sit until Monday night for now.

I hope it continues to start smoothly Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I develop a bad start I'll know where to look first! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, I've been having a code thrown which I've constantly been wiping. New fuel, bang problem gone Never thought I'd say it but Shell looks the better fuel right now. It still takes a moment to crank but doesn't stutter any more. I'll chuck in some BP again later and see what happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 2c here is possibly there is a difference in the actual service stations (freshness/contamination/etc).
