Rough Start when parking on inclines
Rough Start when parking on inclines
I have a 2015 FSport NX200t and when the fuel is ~1/4 tank or less and reverse park up my average sloped driveway (nose of car facing "downhill"), the car tends to barely start. It tends to roll over for 5 seconds or longer before finally firing up.
Anyone else have this issue?

You might have condensation. I'm guessing over a 1/4 tank its fine , throw some dry gas in it. Try running different gas if it keeps up video it and show the dealer. These systems are always pressurized iirc so waiting is not the problem.

I know the pump needs to build pressure you can hear them. Maybe it needs more fuel on an incline. I just had mine at just under a 1/2 tank on a steep incline it was normal. I'd bet fuel. Winter, I never let them go under 1/4 tank anyway because of condensation.
