2017 Honda Civic LX will crank but not start

Asked by headbanger783 Jan 15, 2019 at 02:26 PM about the 2017 Honda Civic LX

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2017 Honda Civic LX with 25k miles.  The other day after having it sit
for 3 days in cold weather the car wouldn't start.  It would crank just fine but it
wouldn't start.  After about 20 minutes of trying to start it (with breaks in
between to not burn anything out) it finally started.  And cross my fingers has
since started as normal each time.

I've seen a few posts with a similar problem on other forums but haven't seen
any cause.

This isn't my car but someone posted a video of EXACTLY what mine did:

My 2005 Civic EX Special Edition does the same thing. It will start fine in the warmer weather but not below 32F. Im hoping somebody will answer both of us but if i figure it out i will post it here.

my 2015 ex-L does this same thing like once a month now after having a bad year overall. I had to hold down start this spring or it wouldnt try like at all. then my ex-bf ran it out of gas and its been hard starting ever since:(
