Welcome. I am not a mechanic but I have a '96 Aurora. I also had a sound coming from my engine and it sounded like a roaring. I had it checked out and had to replace my serpentine belt, and my lower pully.My belt was almost broke. maybe this will help. Wish you luck.

Don't know if it would work, but I have a 97 Aurora that we're parting out because it needs a gas tank and no one seems to be able to get us one. Car runs great otherwise. My post is #78

2001 Aurora hard start when engine cold

2001 Aurora with 98,000 miles. When I am trying to start the car and the engine is cold the engine just cranks and it seems like there is no fuel getting to the engine. After a 2-3 attempts to start the engine the car starts, but the engine seems to rev up a bit before settling down to a nominal RPM. When the engine is not cold, it starts just fine. I have checked the battery (fine), no codes being reported. Everything else appears fine. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

I am having the same problem. Did you receive any feedback on what is causing the hard starts? When my engine starts the RPM gauge goes all the way to 8,000rpm, even though the engine in idling normal. I turn off the ignition and start it again and the RPM gauge resets.

I have not received any replies about this issue. I think that I am going to be forced to take it to the shop in the next few days because the problem seems to be getting progressively worse. I will post the results of what the repairman tells me.

Regarding the posts about the hard start issue. I had this problem with mine on two separate occasions. When I would go to start the car. I'd turn the key and it would crank and crank for a long period of time before it would fire/start up. This sounds like what ya'll are experiencing. I had to replace the Fuel Pressure Regulator(FPR) on two separate occasions within the last 4 years or so. It was actually a very easy fix. Very easy to remove and replace(i am not a car dude), it is located on the top of the engine. Hope this helps!

coreyg1 - Thanks for the input. I will see if I can get the FPR at the auto parts store and replace it over the Thanksgiving weekend. I will post the results. Thanks again for your (hopefully) helpful reply.
