Default Ecoboost rough starting
I have a 2011 Ecoboost XLT with about 1200 miles on it and have noticed that it starts much harder than any of my previous vehicles. It seems to turn over 5-6 times before starting. Temperature doesnt seem to effect it a whole lot. Anyone else have this problem and know if its normal or if theres a fix?

Thanks!

I think that its programmed to do that to possibly get some oil spritzing around in there before ignition.

Yes, it always starts OK. Just seems to take abnormally long to start.
