Hi guys, if I leave her for about 2 or more days I have to crank her over for about 30 seconds before she starts, once warm shes starts on the button, I only got her 3 weeks ago, so plugs, oil , air , ect will be changed asap!

Do you think this would solve problem?

cheers :D

I'd expect a leak on the fuel side so that you're losing fuel pressure. Pull the injectors and send them off to Injectortune for a rebuild, but also check the condition of all rubber fuel lines in the engine.

If it's still bad, do a TEST on the blue coolant sensor (DO NOT REPLACE IT WITHOUT TESTING!).
