Push Start Rough Engine Start Up - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

joergasm · 12-12-2012, 02:32 AM

From Canada, BRZ Limited MT

Not sure if it's related to the cold temperature (its only 0 degrees Celsius)
but on two occasions I've had the clutch pedal pressed all the way and have the smart key light as green and when I press the push start button it struggles to start the engine(first time it struggled for like 8 seconds, recently 4 seconds) [sorry for my lack of terms/words]

I know a few people have had this problem as well, I believe also with the frs in auto/manual.

I was wondering why exactly this happens? If not for the cold temperature.
Sorry if someone already posted this but the

function is quite useless (n)

I've had two of these small hiccups. Nothing major, still started, but a little strange.

Haven't had this issue, but sometimes a phone or other object in my pocket will block the FOB from being detected, until I move it around a bit.
