Re: Car does not start quickly
You really need to get a diagnostic /some live data when you are trying to start the car to see what's going on.
You say you replaced the 'plugs', but did you not also replace the coils?
The coil packs are service items like the plugs and don't last forever. These can cause starting difficulties, and even prevent the engine from starting altogether; misfiring cylinders, increased emissions, incomplete combustion, misfiring, rough idling and loss of power during acceleration. If left, they can also cause damage to the catalytic converter.
