Hard Starting 2000 A6
Hi all,
I have a 2000 A6 2.8 quattro that after sitting for a week or two and having the temperature change by 20 or more degrees F will not start. I cannot get it started until I disconnect the battery and wait a few minutes. Anyone have a better way of starting the thing? Do I have a sensor that has gone bad? Thanks, Michelle

You may need a diagnostics check to find out which one.
