Symptoms:

Starts from cold first time, everytime

Once warm the engine turns over but doesnt start - will eventually start after about 3 or 4 tries.

At the point that it does fire I can feel some movement on the clutch pedal like a 'clunk'.

The car runs perfectly well all the time once its been started.

Thanks in anticipation.

Rick.

I had the exact same starting problem with mine - took it into the dealer under warranty and they replaced the fuel pump. It has been starting perfectly since.
