Ran yesterday no problem, not sure what the issue is. I have a 2007 turbo with about 100k miles. I put about 1000 miles on it yesterday going from Minneapolis to the Mountains in CO. I'm wondering if its a combination of temperature, altitude (I'm at about 8 to 9k ft) and fuel. The tank has 89 Oct 10% ethanol blend (best available at last station), and I have about 150 miles on the tank (no immediate issue). I know the car should run on this no prob, but can't imagine what the problem might be oterwise.

Anyway, it turns over, you can smell fuel and see some vapors from the tailpipe, and it tries to catch a few times, it wants to catch, but doesn't.

Has to be spark, fuel, or air right?

Off to check the plugs and air filter, anyone have any other ideas?

Also, it was just into the dealership for a once over. No issues.

Anything would help, thanks!

Did you see if you have spark ?
