Angry Starting Issue

I started my car the other day and the rpms kept slightly bouncing downward while coming from 2000 rpms during warm up, and engine felt very shaky like it wanted to stall. It was 27 degrees out and I have 9000 miles on my car. Anyone else experience this? I don't think this is normal.

This board kills me -- I've never seen so many GD whiners in my life! So f-ing what if someone asks a question that's been asked previously?

Save us all some time and just answer the guy's GD question already!

Bottom line Rich is that there's a service bulletin on this -- dealer will replace your starer and battery. Just got my car back today.

Now go ahead and ask me if there was ever a flooding issue...

Well, since you decided to buck up, allow me to knock you back down. It wasnt the fact that he posted a question that was previously asked... he posted a new thread after starting the exact same thread just 30 minutes earlier. Here it is since you decided to be an *** instead of just checking it out yourself.

The worst thing about this damn board is the immediate interjection from Mugatu and his like telling everybody to SEARCH. New RX8 owner? SEARCH! Don't bother asking questions or even assuming that many, many people out there are pretty new to Internet forums. SEARCH. We're not an encylopedia! SEARCH. You just bought a $40,000 car? **** you...SEARCH. For Christ's sake...SEARCH!

85 percent of the public don't know the Internet from Interpol. Give them a freaking break and make them feel at least a little bit welcome. The funniest thing is that the arbiters of these rules seem to be on the damn forum 24/7....and are ready to jump on these newbies at a moment's notice. "Even my dog searches"? Well I guess we're just a bunch of idots Will Ferrell. **** you and the extraordinary amount of time you seem to spend on your avatar and Picard putting bullets into somebody.

I have to agree with this --

i love how you defend owners new and old for the reason of being too lazy to search. i guess you'd rather have a forum where you could potentially have an entire page listing of how bad gas mileage is.

90% of the time I tell people to search, it is because the answer is so readily available. I am sorry this fact offends you. and you're right, you're not an encyclopedia. THIS FORUM IS. the answers to the questions I say to search for can be easily found instead of littering the forum with another useless thread.

and anyone new to internet forums should be able to read the big SEARCH button at the top.

have a nice day FOR ******* CHRIST SAKE.
