1999 9-3 base auto with 187K miles.
Ok, I think I know the answer to this one… but I have to ask to make sure…
Engine seems to runs fine, at least for the mileage. Historically always & consistently started in a quick 3 count… but not since yesterday afternoon. Yesterday morning no problem. Dropped the car off for an alignment. Picked it up in the afternoon, guy said he had issues getting is all aligned due to things rusted up, (including the “nut†on the adjustment screw being stripped & had to use an adjustable wrench) but was able to get everything in spec. Leaving the car took longer than normal to start… more like a quick 5 or 6 count. Ran an errand on the way home & same thing, & again this morning. Is there anything they could have messed up during the alignment (a Hunter Hawkeye system), or this just coincidental?
Not to skew responses but had the fuel pump replaced about 6-7 years & 75-80K miles ago. I've recently wiped out the TB around the plate, but haven't cleaned the AIC in about a year.
