Car hesitates to start sometimes

Asked by BTP159 Sep 21, 2019 at 07:25 AM about the 2014 Audi Q5

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My car hesitates to start sometimes. Now I took it
to the dealer, they said to replace all injectors and
have the carbon clean for the valve for 4,000
dollars. Now the engine light is on could my issue
be anything else before I spend 4000 dollars?

I would atleast try running cleaner thru the fuel system with premier gas, run two tanks like that worth a try may clear out its own. It could be the battery or some simple thing
