Iv'e got two keys and I have the same problems with both. If it is an immobiliser problem will a new key solve the starting issues?
I have just last week had the same problem, the car would start intermittently, sometimes it would start 1st time, I would drive 2 miles stop then take 5 mins to start, other times it would take 2 - 5 mins to start. I also have the problem with the Serv, ESP and ABS lights coming on whilst trying to turn the engine over, I normally turn the key so the dashboard lights up, put on the seat belt then when the immob light has gone out start the car but I have noticed that although the above lights have gone out they light up when I start the car, Do you have the same prob or has anyone else noticed these particular lights comming on.
Anways my car was still under warranty (ends 16/05), luckily, and it turned out, according to the dealer to be a faulty TDC sensor, this sorted the startup probs but not the lights so its back in on Friday.
Hope this helps
