you pour warm water on it, but dont get it in the air filter because it will get in your fuel system and mess up your car
because the engine is cold and you need to keep the engine warm.
Yes the reason for that is because the engine is over heated and when its cold the engine is nice and cold perfect for starting conditions.
Most diesel engines are hard to start when it is cold. Plugging the diesel engine block heater in will help the engine start.
Means to start the engine while it is cold (And has not been running for a few hours so the engine has gone cold)
it should start at cold
Bad thermostat? Doesn't close enough to allow engine to warm up properly
It is not so much hard for a car to start when the engine is cold as it is easier for a car to start when the engine is warm.Cars that are hard to start in the cold are usually not new cars any more and because of wear and tear there is more likely to be something that doesnt work as well. when fuel is warm it ignites more easily.
It's when you start the engine when it is either really cold out, or the car has been sitting in a temperature region for a while where it has not been run and exposed to cold conditions. This is where more than 50% of engine wear comes from, the cold start because the oil has thickened and therefore does not pump through to the most crucial parts of the engine as fast. best advice is to use the manufacturer recommend oil viscosity (ex: 5w30 or 5w20) thicker oil does not help. And the use of synthetic and synthetic blend oils does help to reduce engine wear at a cold start.

Your engine knocks when you cold start it because the motor oil is not viscous enough to lubricate crank bearings, cylinders, etc. warm it up first, engine will last alot longer
Incomplete combustion
Does the engine turn over but not start or it does not turn over till cold? If the latter is the answer then your kick start is the problem. REPLY The car turns over but wont start.
