S6 no start

[Kneale Brownson]

No S-car experience, but a common hot no-start issue on I5 engines is hose leaks.

I ran an errand from work about 3 miles (not even fully warm). When I came 
out of the store about 10-15 minutes later the car would crank and crank but no 
fire. All the electrics worked fine. I jiggled every wire I could reach - 
no joy. Fiddled in the trunk a few minutes to see if I had any tools I could 
use to diagnose. No luck. Tried to start again - no joy. Sat and waited a few 
minutes trying to think clearly and less emotionally to decide a course of 
action. Tried it again and voila- fired up, and subsequently started the 4 
remaining times to get me home. The only issues on the trip home was an idle that 
was unstable. It would rise and fall from 400 to ~ 1300. It never died but 
came very close. Unfortunately, I was unable to establish if it was lack of 
fuel or spark.

I will try tomorrow to check for codes, but wandered if anyone has had 
similar experience and can point to a list of usual suspects
