Hi Guys.
I have an issue with my 2008 H3 3.7 L with about 114000 miles. This has been going on for a while and I can't seem to track down whats causing the problem. After numerous forum/internet searches and trips to the dealer no one has come up with a solution. The problem occurs after I drive the truck and get it up to operating temperature then shut if off and let it sit of at least an hour (it has done it after sitting for 4 hours). When I go to restart it, it will sputter and bog or some times stall and takes an extra few cranks to start if it stalls. If the truck is cold it will start fine and if its hot and I shut it down and restart it, it will fire up with no problem. I have no codes or engine lights. The dealer has replaced the cam positioning solenoid, they replaced a broken rear exhaust manifold stud I found and even installed a new exhaust manifold and O2 sensor (the latter I did have a light for). I replaced the plugs with the oem ones and put dielectric grease on the coils. I once had a code for small evap leak but I cleared it and it never returned.
Thanks for taking the time to read all this. If anyone has any ideas please share what you think it would be. If I'm missing any info let me know.
Thanks - Joe.
