HI: New to the group here. Have a 98 A6 Quattro 2.8 144k miles.. heres my problem.. twice in past two months have had starting problem.. first time was mid Jan in NYC.. temp had dropped to single digits.. second time was today.. temp had not gone too low over night .. but both times similar symptoms... engine had plenty of cranking power.. engine turned over and over... no weakening... both times when vehicle finally fired that engine was slow to "take".. like it was starrved for fuel or something.. needed to keep pedal depressed to keep engine firing... my hunch is a fuel problem..
Anyone out here have simialr problems or any suggestions? I am a sort of newbie mechanic.. that is I used to help my dad work on vehicles back in the
70s when u could stand in the engine compartment and work...lol havent dont much since..Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks
