starter motor problems - seems to work fine from cold and sometime s fine wen hot -but quite regularly doesn't (no clicking sound at all ) as i have had to bump start the car 4 times since friday ( which was 2 days ago )- you can't always park on hill so its proving to be quite a tiresome ritual.

i do remember once that the starters can get a problem on one part of them wen they get hot ..?

but also remember that - once there was an issue with the immobiliser not releasing for some reason after one stops briefly ...?

In the defence of the starter motor being the culprit sometimes it sounds hideous whilst starting llike a lot if nail s scrapping

It will be 3rd replacement in under 10month s these reconditioned ones are a joke - hope it's covered under warranty - bump starting a car with a baby in its gotta b illegal
