G6 V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 54,000 miles

When I start the car with key or remote start, the starter stays engaged. Lately when this happens the engine chugs and does not start. I will then turn the key off and retry and it will usually start. It first started about a year ago and was very intermittent. Now it happens quite often.

I did take this to the dealership when it first occurred. I was told this is considered to be normal. The car will have an "extended" start since I have the factory remote start option.

At another dealership I was told they cannot diagnose the problem unless is happens and they can then plug the computer in to the car to get a fault code. I was able to get the car to have the problem at the dealer and they hooked up the computer. This dealer told me there was nothing wrong with the car because there was no fault code registered in the cars computer. Seriously? Anyone else out there have the same problem?
