The hard start continues to get worse.

I do hear a little air hiss, that started right before the hard start issue. That's what made me think that it possibly was the converter. "Sounds like the air cleaner is off when I hit the throttle". Does a leaky intake gasket cause hard start warm but not cold?

Any suggestions?

Hate to say I have no idea what it is but from all the "miss" information you have from the dealer already it really sounds like they have no idea either.

Please tell me you have an extended warranty and you are not shelling out big bucks at the dealership service department for all the repairs.

I would suggest that you try a auto parts store that does scans for free and get a second opinion at least, and if they give you a print out you could compare it to the dealers if you go back there.
Good luck to you~Richard
