Hi, I'm hoping that someone might be able to tell me what might be causing my 2011 VE SSV to sputter when it starts cold in the morning, because I'm running out of ideas.
The car has just been serviced a few days ago, and I've just had the battery replaced a little over a week ago with a much better battery than the stock one, which when tested showed it was on its way out, so I've put a Supercharge MF66H in there instead, which is rated at 750 CCA's, and when I had it serviced the other day I asked my mechanic if it could need new plugs, but he said that it shouldn't because the iridium plugs have lifespan of around 90,000 km's before they're due to be replaced.
He tested it for any tripped error codes, which there were none, and gave it good going over to see if he could find the issue, but couldn't find it, so he put a bottle of injector cleaner in it, and said that thought that should do the trick, but I'm still having the same issues, and I'm at a loss as to what's going on.
Can anyone tell me whether they've had a similar issue, and what the cause was, and whether the plugs could be the culprit, and possibly need changing now?
I'd really appreciate any help or suggestions guys, so thanks in advance
