My wifes 06 did the same thing. One day she called me and said it wouldn't start. I check it out and it cranks fine but won't fire. Plugs and wires seem good, throttle body butterfly valve isn't stuck. Cleaned the maf and hooked up obd reader.. no codes...? Tried cranking it once more but this time I gave it a little gas pedal and it sputtered to life. Haven't had an issue since. I have no idea how a car can't start but throws no codes!

What timing... the first time my wifes 3 did this was a couple years ago well it just did it again last night. Cranked over with good power but would not fire. Tried it 3 times and it would not start, then started pumping the gas peddle and slowly after about 10 seconds of cranking over it slowly sputtered to life. I was just trying to move it into our driveway and get it off the street so I did that and shut it down.

This morning I went out there and hooked up the scanner to it... no codes! Tried to start it and it started right up! This is ridiculous, someone has to have figured out what the deal is with these by now?? I've searched and there are lots of people who have had the issue but no real resolutions.
