START UP ON COLD MORNING HELP

Hi Guys
Just bought a RRS last week 06 plate - and when I turn the key it begins to start then dies for a second, but on the 2nd attempt it fires up fine......

Are they supposed to be start like this ona cold morning or is something wrong?

Your help is appreciated

Regards
Woza

Hello Woza
Is yours s/c or diesel
My s/c does exactly the same but only on very cold starts, more so if all the electrics are on. I changed my battery, old one was a bit weak. still happens on a very cold morning. I find if i gently feather the accelerator after its started and looks like it may stall, does the job

Do you wait for the glow lamp to go out before you start it??? You should do on cold mornings - if you don't you will get what you are experiencing.....

There is a preheat indicator but because of the stop/start button, u don't have to wait before turning the key, the car wait on its own.... Range Rover Vogue ‘17 TDV6
