Mine started like stock. Though I am in perth. Started it on some cold mornings and it was fine. I didn't fine any downside to E85 for a weekend car. For a daily it would be a pain and $$ Just my real world experience. Ps it's a great motor cleaner. My exhaust valves are squeaky clean
Thanks everyone who responded. It was the Temp sensor connector for ECU. Cleaned up and reconnected last night. This morning started car in first turn. You guys were spot on. Will check filter and replace pump with new stock TT OEM pump this wkend. Going back to 95 ULP from this week. Not worth hassle and stress when using E10.
E85 helps massively on pretty much all turbo engines, i'd run it on anything provided there was a close servo that had it. Luckily i have 2 in my neighborhood
Update. It was the S2 PTU dying slowly two weeks ago and gave up completely one day. Now car starts in first turn with no issue no matter what fuel I use. E10 runs car better and more power.
