2007 Audi A6 3.2L Won't start properly in cold weather
I have an 2007 audi a6 and whenever it is cold in the morning the car takes extra effort to start but it doesn't start right away it shuts off midway starting and ill have to start it again and it will run fine. This issue is only in weather below freezing or at least 32 degrees Fahrenheit. Sometimes it will take more then two tries to start the car and when it doesn't start it just stays at the battery stage since the key was already turned. I am not sure what could be the issue i have new spark plugs new coolant flushed as well and i never checked the battery manually i am assuming it could be the battery but i have had no problems starting the car in ok weather. Any ideas what could be making the car not start the first two or three times in cold weather? It runs fine once it starts though.

I have a similar issue which started about 1-1.5 months ago.
When the car is cold, or has been parked overnight it cranks a long time before finally starting. When warm or parked only for an hour or so it starts instantly.

Did the dealer updated the engine control module program after cleaning?

Don't know if they updated the ECM, but I doubt it since it was not specified on the bill.

It was the manual cleaning, removing upper and lower intake. I documented it here: https://www.audiworld.com/forums/sho...0#post24358802
