Hi guys, does anyone's F430 has this problems as well? https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/360-430/427392-cold-start-stumble-question.html I know mine has this but it only happens when I don't touch the car for few days.... usually if I used the car yesterday it would'nt have this engine "stumble" issue during cold starts... yes, apparently if I were to switch off and start the engine again, it would'nt have that stumble which sounds like the engine is dieing.
I've not encountered that before. Sorry DavidDw. I'm no expert but have you made sure that the battery is in tip top condition?
It does sound like fuel delivery issue. Try changing the fuel filter if you haven't then do a test on PSi of fuel pump/injectors. Some workshops do this but it's a tedious job hunting down issues & not everyone likes to do it. They'll usually ask you to change everything & bill you as that's what happened to me until one smart guy found that the fuel tank has lots of dirt clogged up in the fuel pipes. If it's not a big problem then leave it.
After reading up the thread, seems that some of them highlighted that hooking up the battery trickle charger might solved the problem... I not sure if my battery is tip top condition, I guess I have to bring it down to a workshop to get it checked.... Thats what I fear too haha usually they would just call me half a day later, Sir we need to change etc etc etc.... and probably they would say I think its better to change a new battery haha.... oh well... I guess it's not easy to find a good workshop these days....
I got my battery changed by Exquisite Marques a few months ago. I was satisfied with the service and cost.

Hi guys, anyone sticker their whole car before? thinking of doing it.... so far I only can think of Johnson sticker... Roughly how much does this sticker job usually cost and anyone has a good experience with any of the shops doing this? Does anyone happen to also know the colour code for that "matt" gold finishing on some of the scuds running around ? Tried looking around.... nobody seems to know and some suggested Ducati gold but a few responded it was brighter than what ferrari had used. Cheers!
Thanks boys! Let me know if any of you fancy some amazing cocktails, being Scottish i have some incredible Whisky's as well taken in ! Cheers Guy
