Anyone out there have this happen to them? My 98.5 2.8QT has only 5,000+ miles on it and today for the first time, the engine didn't start after the first turn of the key.<p>I waited for a minute or two and then tried again. Nothing! I waited again for another few minutes and then cranked the key again, but this time letting the engine turn for 5-10 seconds before it finally started.<p>Anyone had this happen to them? Should I be concerned? Any advice would be great since this is too soon for anything bad like this to happen.<br>Thanks, Dan<br>

Happens once in awhile on my 1.8T, I let the starter crank and crank, hit the accelerator and work on getting it to turn. Finally, it does. Sometimes the check engine light stays on, #04MISFIRE is the error given when the dealer resets it.<p>Cameron<br>
