used to be that very rarely on really cold nights (like below 0°) I would start the car and the engine would shudder so badly the whole car was shake so I would quickly turn it off and turn it back on and it would be fine. then at the beginning of this winter it would (occasionally) feel like it's almost stalling for a minute or two (really low idle), after it automatically started (for some reason) on really cold days. seemed fine once it warmed up. just now, -10° out, the engine would not stay running. it would start, run and sound normal, for 2 or 3 seconds and then turn off. check engine light comes on and it "says check hybrid system". unfortunately me but not my code reader are away from home right now. just looking for anything I can do myself on this Sunday or something very specific to tell a random mechanic to fix thanks for reading, eli.
You have to read codes. It’s so simple and worth it if you want to know information. Get a vlink dongle and use a scanner app. Sounds like your throttle body is clogged perhaps - but could be any number of things.
