Hi there, I have bought a 3 year old 550 with 10,000 miles on clock and love it to bits. When I turn the key on a cold start it fires into life with an aggressive growl and everything is fine. However, when after a drive I stop and restart about half an hr later it often takes several attempts to start and then it is a very limp kind of start and struggles to kick in. This has improved very embarrasing around town when half the street is watching and waiting to hear a thunderous growl. Can anyone explain if this is unusual or what it means and offer help/tips?
