Crank shaft positioning sensor? Or as 4Diver4 says coolant sensor, had that problem last year

and replaced fuel pump and filter first, turned out to be both sensors mentioned above. First we did coolant, solved the issue for a month then it was CSPS, fixed the problem. Just be aware that the CSPS does not always throw a code right away, check codes, if not there, clear then drive a bit and check again when eng. light pops up. This happens when engine is hot only,after it cools down the car starts, but as it goes on, it needs more cool off time for the car to start. GL.

  - Replaced both sensors at $275 parts/labor. Hopefully will solve the problem. - TomS2.7t 2016-06-04 16:38:48 (204 views)
  - Thanks for the info! - TomS2.7t 2016-05-27 13:19:21 (211 views)
- Any codes? How old is the coolant temp sensor? - 4Driver4 2016-05-27 06:40:33 (218 views)
  - I will pull codes in a few days....don't think the sensor has been replaced. - TomS2.7t 2016-05-27 11:25:26 (230 views)
    - Absolutely. And it might do it without even throwing a code. - 4Driver4 2016-05-27 14:47:29 (222 views)
      - Thanks...had a local indy change out both sensors. - TomS2.7t 2016-06-03 01:17:54 (222 views)
