I've had problems for a while now, where the immobiliser won't properly turn off when I click the central locking, but I've always found it could be started by just revving it a bit as it was turning over.
But earlier today after I had it parked up in town, so it was starting from cold, it just wouldn't start up. The interior light was coming on and the flashing imobiliser light going out when I clicked the locking, so I don't know whether this is problem with the imobiliser or not.
The starter motor was working, but it just wouldn't come to life. I kept trying for a bit, then gave it a rest and walked to Tesco's to buy a Danish to cheer me up. Came back, same problem, but then it just kind of 'stumbled' into life. As in I was about to turn it off again when it just started turning over. Gave it a few revs and it comes to life.
Once it was warm there were no more problems, and it'd happily idle and everything else. But then a minute ago, I had the same problem with it sitting on my drive (which is worrying as I don't have homestart) again from cold.
So what's your thinking on this? Immobiliser or not? Oh can anyone recommend a good (read:cheap) garage in Wiltshire way?
Cheers!
