Failure/Difficulty to Re-Start After Long Drive
Recently I have had issues trying to start my 2010 Camaro SS shortly after turning it off after a long drive. Sometimes it starts and the tac no longer reads and all of the traction control lights are on, sometimes it takes a few more cranks than normal to start.
I have noticed this happens a lot more when its warm out as well. If I let it sit for 30 minutes or more it starts with little to no issues. Anyone have any suggestions as to what it could be? |

I've had the same issue, but after a stall. It either doesn't start for a couple of times, or takes longer to start up.

Ive had a friend suggest its the battery, however this doesn't make much sense to me. I would assume if it were the battery it would start great right after a long drive because it was just being charged, and it to have problems starting after sitting for a while.

If it is the battery, I'm screwed. I have a sound system in there and I'm sure they'll deny the warranty based on that.

Update: So the other morning, I started Sofia up, and noticed that the clutch was again, nearly all the way down. I let it warm up, backed up, and stalled (I'm still not used to the pressure required when the clutch is all the way down). I tried turning on the car, by flicking the key, as instructed in the manual (as opposed to holding the key) and while the car turned over, it wouldn't start. I repeated this process about 8 times.
Finally, I held the key down, and tapped the gas. The car then started. Not good. This shouldn't be happening on a car less than a year old, and with not even 15K miles on it. I really think this issue, for me, is related to my thread here which I haven't been able to get any help on. I'm really at a loss of what to do. The issues are starting to add up for me.
