Hi. We've got a 2003 Ford Focus 1.6 Saloon automatic and for about a year we've been having intermittent (sporadic) starting problems where if you turn the key, all the dashboard lights come on like normal, and then nothing, just a click. We had the starter motor replaced about 10 days ago and it seemed to go away for about a week, but now the problem has returned. Sometimes it will start after 2-3 turns of the key, other times it can take 20-30 turns before it will attempt to start. It only cranks as it starts, otherwise just a click! Occasionally messing around with the electric windows or radio will actually get it to attempt to start more quickly (or so it seems). Any ideas please? Many thanks, M&C.
