Random No Start Issue

[froger]

Hello , if your car is Canadian ,A 2008 Canadian model came with a immobilizer, It kinda sounds like you are having an immobilizer issue.Sometimes when you start the car too fast, the signal from the immobilizer ecu doesn't get received by the engine ecu, so then the engine ecu locks you out (cranks but no start),after the second attempt or a long cranking eventually the signal is received and then the engine starts.The other issue with the immobilizer is if you leave the keys in the ignition too long the immobilizer ecu goes to sleep ,then you won't be able to start the car at all ,unless you pull the keys out of the car and wait about a minute before starting again .Also if you have an aftermarket engine remote start ,I would look to see if that isn't messing with the immobilizer ecu,had it where it burnt out an ecu ,back feed through the immobilizer communication lines.
