I changed my battery from a n advance auto parts duralast to an OEM VW battery from the dealer. The moment I put the new battery the car starts up super quickly. VW Battery seemed to fixed my issue
Welp, this has returned after being problem free since April. Super long crank before starting on Saturday. Did eventually fire and stumble up to proper RPMs. Of course this happens right after I stop researching what my next vehicle will be and decide to commit to it for the long haul haha.
But hey, I managed to finally get a video of it! This was after my 35 minute commute to work and then letting the car sit for a bit over an hour and a half. The video does have sound, but it looks like Imgur mutes by default.
