My 22' SS is the same. 2,200 miles and when you restart after some spirited drive, it's a slow crank but always start. I was also told know issue and it it starts, move on. Never had it not.

My wife's 18 DSRT did this so maybe not exclusively sc cars. Occasionally slow start after warm. We also thought it was the battery at first.

My 2015 hc has never done it, before or after 2x pumps install and 18+ fuel rails/pres sens.

can't say it's the same issue, but the early '09 Challenger SRT8's had the wrong negative battery cable installed [they had the SXT/RT cable]. believe it was blamed on trim-level confusion, caused a similar warm/hot start issue. Solution was replacing the neg bat cable, and swapping the battery for a higher amp model

edit: I eventually tossed the OEM cable [damn things kept falling apart], and replaced it with an old-fashioned fat hunk of wound copper. much heavier, but never failed again

Sorry to hear you're having these issues. I have a 23 charger redeye with the same issues. It's got nothing to do with the battery. Stellantis have been working on my car for the past 6 months now with no resolution. Happens only on hot starts. This is common apparently and they still haven't found a fix for it.

Hi folks!

Thanks for the replies! I have recently put in new fuel with higher octane, and I will also change the battery to a new one. Hopefully this will solve this problem. I will update you guys with the result.

Glad to hear you are still with us! I was getting worried! :ROFLMAO:

Did you drain/run out the old fuel before refilling?
