Nope. They have an electric oil pump that keeps working when the engine is off. It's not a cold start, an electric motor turns the engine to top dead centre and fires the plug on a hot engine .

Are you talking about the CVT oil pump? Or have some manufacturers started doing doing this on the engine oil pump?
