Default 7th gen AV6 hesitation

I just got a new 7th gen Accord V6 coupe. I was wondering if anyone noticed that their V6 starts kind of funny, like it is slightly hesitating. Just curious, I got 450 miles on it.

I get that problem... Just turn the key to the 2nd click wait till the gas thing stops moving then start the car and its fine...

I think it has somthing to do with the imobilizer thing or whatever on our cars...

Yes, that's a known problem, I haven't really experienced it myself but a lot of people said the same thing as BigB2k3, turn the key to the final position and then wait few secs and then turn to start.

Thanks for the input, I am used to starting right away on my Civic without Immobilizer. Makes sense I suppose, I used to manage a Car audio and caught hell with a few after market alarms on cars with Immobilizers in the key. They are pretty tempermental. Other than that the only other issue I had was the defective black trim at the base of the window. Off the subject , I am looking for a nice exhaust any suggestions. I want a full catback with the Comptech look.

Thanks, Mike
