2008 Diesel Sportage, sometime it give trouble to start, engine tumbles strong but will start and then cut off, fuel pump is good and the pressure coming from the pump is sufficent.
Any suggestions?

Try giving it a few seconds after turning on the ignition before attempting to start and see if it makes any difference.

Did that but only sometimes that works. After it gives trouble like that usally I leave it over night and the next day it works perfect. Once it gives that trouble I could try tumbling over and over till the battery becomes exhausted and it still would not start. Also there are no error codes to view if a scan is done....???
Any expert opinions?

Does anyone know after a natural defect of the 2.0 Diesel engines?
