I have had starting issues for a while with this car. I have had to switch keys. I have had the battery changed 3 times as it was bad. In the morning or the first time you start the car for the day, it cranks right up. After that it won't. One time it was due to the security system. I have changed the fuel line and fuel filter. The other day I noticed that the box for the air filter was missing the clip, Used some wire to close it. Cap for the oil is loose.

I just bought this freaking beautiful car with an ugly problem! 2 weeks after i bought the darn car i drive it to the store and i cant get it to start. I tried for two hours and finally got it started and I drove it to the repair shop. They checked every thing, the battery was fine , the starter was fine and the diagnostics machine found nothing. Just because they tried it a couple of times and it started does not mean I am a nut. The car does fine some times and other times it is not motivated to start at all. I was told to put High Octane Gas in it which I did, and fuel injector cleaner! Newsflash I still have a cantankerous car! hooray for the lemon law
