Clio Intermittant Failure to Start - Tim Selwyn
Hello,

Girlfriend's clio has an intermittent fault which the garage can't help with.

It sometimes turns over but doesn't start (and doesn't with continued turning over). If the electrics are then turned off (ie key out of ignition) and the car re-started, it then starts first time as usual.

Suggestions? It has a new battery.

Thanks!
