Hi all: I have a 2009 Civ EX that was purchased new about 18 mos. ago and now has approx 18000 miles. Car has had all recommended service, including the 15K service about a month ago. The car has run flawlessly the whole time I've had it, up until this morning when I had a starting problem. When I turned the key, the engine caught on as usual but then immediately stumbled and died. I made a number of additional attempts without success, each time the starter cranked the engine but either it wouldn't catch at all, or it would catch on but then immediately stumble and die. Then, about the 8th or 9th try, the engine caught on immediately and idled smoothly in normal fashion. And I have since driven the car around town and it has been running and starting normally. If anyone has any suggestion(s) re. likely cause of symptom described above I'd love to hear it/them. Is this a symptom of a known intermittent problem with this model? How can I get the dealer to diagnose and fix whatever is wrong if the problem won't recur in the dealership? If it happens again, is there anything I should try to do or notice in an attempt to identify the cause? Any other thoughts/suggestions? Thanks for your replies!
