    Several times now my clubbie has not started right up when pushing the button. It kind of turns over but won't start. not sure why. It sounds like it is not getting fuel. Try it 3 times and it will fire up and be ok or it may stumble once or twice. If I rev up the RPMs it will go on and be just fine. Anyone have any ideas on this. I am thinking HPFP!? Got to get it to the dealer soon.:mad:

    I'm thinking you are on the right track. Possibly the HPFP.

    2012? I'm gonna call poor assembly/bad parts. It's under warranty. Back to the dealer with it.

    HPFP hasn't been "an issue" since the late 2009 MY. Not to say that it's not the pump but the faulty pumps typically mentioned were between 2007 and 2009.

    Wonder if it could be bad gas! Going to dealer Saturday regardless
