Clio 172 Ph2 Intermittent starting issue, Help or advice much appreciated :)



  RS197
Hi guys, I have just bought a Clio Sport 53 Plate and have a slight niggle occurring at the moment which seems to be intermittent. It is when starting the car, yesterday and today and is possibly due to the horrid weather. It has happened twice in 5 days so far, one was on a cold start in the morning and the other was about half an hour after driving and getting back in.

The problem is that when I put the key in and turn to crank it nothing happens, no significant noises or starter engaging etc. Both times i clicked the button on the key to lock and unlock and then it worked after a few times of doing this, does anyone have an idea what this could be as I am slightly worried about parking somewhere and not being able to get the car started if the problem gets worse. AA man already hates me lol

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated

Cheers Jordan

To be honest, the 2 times it has happened I hadn't checked what the immobiliser light was doing, sorry to sound stupid but is that the light in the middle of the instrument panel between the STOP and SERVICE lights?

I have noticed it is flashing when the car starts up if this is normal?

Cheers Jordan
