Rough Starting

[vipercwf]

Hey Guys, just recently i've noticed a few times that my car has started a little roughly...like kinda hesitated a little bit. Once it started and then stalled. I haven't ever noticed this before - any thoughts on what it could be or should I be concerned? Only noticed it a couple times and only stalled that once. Weird thing is once running it is still running like a dream it seems...

My car recently started doing this aswell but i think mine is due to my timing chain being loose. I just dropped off the car at the dealership to have them check it out because when i'd start the car it would make a loud rattling noise and it sounded like it was coming from the timing chain and at the same time it would hesitate to start. One time it almost didnt start on me.

Mods are in my sig and i'm just under 28000 miles. I'm picking up the car in the morning so i'll find out what was causing the timing chain noise and let you guys know. I'm pretty sure it was the timing chain causing my hesitation on start up cause it just started recently when my timing chain started making noise and once the chain would quiet down the car would idle normal.

That was directed to the OP.

i would first start with a tune up. bad plugs, clogged filter, weak/worn battery etc.... can be things that can affect start up. inspecting these things often is good idea anyway.

My starts consist of a little popping, obviously because of the BOV. But upon turning the car off, its a little rough. It consists of a little clunk usually on cold turn off.
