Hey Rx8 family. I'm in need of help. when I'm starting my car it takes a few seconds to catch. you can hear it turning over but I have to have the ignition turned for a few seconds before it catches. I took it to a mechanic and they told me fuel pressure, spark, O2 sensors were good. they said they cant identify the problem. Any suggestions? Please help.

You have a dead coil. Change all 4 out, it's a 30 min job.
