My 96 8v GTi has a problem,
The problem is when I turn the key everything lights up but the car wont start. After a few turns it starts.
Sometimes it turns over but does not burst into life, thats after a few turns with nothing happening.
When the car is cold it's not as bad, when the car is having lots of use, i.e in and out a lot during the day it is worse. It has just taken 20 minutes to get going in my boys school car park. Really thought I was going to have to get it recovered!
So is this an ignition switch problem or starter motor, or even something to do with the immobilisor. Gonna sound like a proper novice now, does my car have an immobilisor?
Please help, this problem is getting really annoying now.
Thank you
