Hi,

i bought my Si around two months ago. I love the car, but...

Now for about a month iīve had every day (well, morning) issues with the starting of my car.

I start it, the car shakes for about 5 seconds and it sometimes even shutdowns the engine because of the low revs. I can also smell a bit of benzin. Every other start (than the first) and itīs no problemo. My car also consumes a lot of benzin, i mostly drive quite nicely and still itīs about 12,5 litres per 100 kilometres..quite a lot!

Now my car is going to be checked in next week. They will change oil, brake fluids and valve clearance and it will cost ībout 550€, ouch! Valve clearance is about 300€ and it should be checked in every oil change, jeez! I wonder if itīs true that they should fix valve clearance on warranty? I asked and they said no..i just need some proof from somewhere, anyone?

Ciao,

Tommi
