    Default 7mge rough when cold

    For the last couple of weeks my 7mge has been driving rough when cold until it reaches its normal driving temperature then its suddenly drives normally. Not really sure where to start looking? Its not bothering me too much at the moment but I would rather check it out incase it gets worse.

    Maybe try checking for codes, and possible coolant temp sensor, rooted

    My 7m(gte) did this, then I realised it had a BHG So that may be a possibility!

    If the engine is also hard to start, yes I would look at the cold start intector time out switch. If it starts well, then you have other problems.

    I doubt its a bhg, i've already fixed that crap. Ive checked the codes and it comes up with the TPS, but i'll also check that cold start injector and coolant temp sensor, thanks for that. My mate thinks it may even be the fuel filter? Hope not, 'cause there in a bit of a tricky spot to get to!

    Its definitely not the Fuel Filter so don't waste your time or money on that.
    Rep points are for those who feel inadequate in other areas !
