Good morning all. I have a bugbear car with a G4X that refuses to start consistently from day to day, even with the exact same tune.

I suspect a trigger issue. The car seemingly randomly decides to start normally about one in ten tries, so I know that everything else is in place for correct running. I have gotten this car to the point of cold and hot starting 7+ times in a row in the past, but it never behaves the same way the next day or even a few hours later. There is a large amount of noise present in the trigger scope when sitting there with key on (Hall crank sensor, 36-1 trigger wheel) but the scope appears clean when cranking and running.

These logs may not all share the exact same cold start and trigger settings. In the pursuit of logging one successful start, I needed to play around a bit. This car is a comeback; when it left my care, it was starting consistently, and now we're back at square one fighting cold start issues with no modifications to the tune with which it left. The attached .pclx is that tune. I did update the firmware when the car came back, to seemingly no effect.
