Rough Starts & a P0213-00 CEL

[yarmo]

Been searching around, but I haven't seen anyone with this issue exactly. On cold starts (no matter the temp outside warm or cold) the engine really struggles to idle. The revs stick up and down within a few hundred, and it sounds like it's down a cylinder until warm. The glow plug light flashes fast, and it throws a CEL with code P0213-00. That comes back as a 7th injector issue - the cold start injector. I had the HPFP done already so hoping it's not something there. Dropped it at the dealer to most likely be warrantied, but we'll see.

*Battery light is only on because I was reading codes with the engine off. I deleted my aux & replaced my battery less than a year ago.

Gemini says check air filter then maf sensor.

Dealer fixed it pretty quickly, it was just another glowplug that went bad. Warranty covered it no charge.
