A few month ago I drove to the paper shop ,when I came out the car wouldn't start, all the lights came on yet nothing on the last bit of the turn, no noise , nothing.. I'd replaced the battery a few month before so I knew it wasn't that. I rang a friend and he said it's sounds like the starter motor. I turned the key again and it started so I took it to a local garage, he asked me to bring the spare key as he wanted to try a different key. He had it a week and started it 30/40 times and it started every time and didn't display any error codes, he said it really did sound like a starter motor, but as it was starting for him he wouldn't recommend changing it. He'd checking all earthing connections as sometimes a bad earth can cause issues. I insisted he changed it as I didn't want to get stuck again, and it was only £110 for all the labour and parts... It's been fine for 4 weeks until yesterday , it did the same at some traffic lights after I stalled it. Then wouldn't start for 3 minutes,. I rang the garage and he said bring it in ,and he'll have a look at it, but if it's not doing it for him and there's no error codes he's at a loss.
Has anyone else had this issue?
