I just picked up my '08 tonight. I started it at the dealership and headed for home. I parked it and it sat for about 2 hours before I found another reason to use it. I went out and tried to start it and the engine turned over for about 4-5 seconds and didn't start so I let off the key. I tried a second time and again the same result. Finally on the third try, it started. Any idea why?

 

Same thing happened on my first test drive with one that was on the dealer lot. Thought maybe I forgot to wait for the glow plug light to turn out, as it was cool that day. On the second try, I made sure to wait for the light to go out, and it still didn't start. Third try it started instantly.

 

Well, I got in my truck this morning and it started fine. However, I got going down the road at cruising speed and every time I tried to accelerate up a slight grade the truck would buck and sputter. I think I may have an injector problem, but no check engine light. Looks like I'll be without my brand new truck for a while as I'll be taking it back to the dealer on Monday.

 

A couple of other members have had this same problem..they will replace the injectors, and everything will be fine after that. Dont let this ruin your experience.
