My Golf was always a bit slow to turn over but fired up every time. However the other night I got in and nothing. The engine won't turn at all and the starter doesn't even click. What's more, every time you turn they key into the 'start' position, the dash lights go out, the clock resets and the warning lights no longer come on! Everything else electrical works fine however.
I've had it to my local garage but they cannot work out the fault. The battery is new, there is power coming from the ignition switch and to the starter. Did try a bump start and the engine turned over very slowly, but I ran out of road so couldn't try it again. Any ideas before I get it towed to a specialist and pray they find the fault quickly?
