I thought the service had cured the problem bit it hasn't. It's a really wired one what happens is I get into my car and it won't start so I take the key out and the clock needles go down to 0 but they click as if they are trying to go futher down, and the digital displays flicker on and off, resetting the clock back to 0:00. I have also noticed when I'm driving with my lights on the blue back light on the dash occasionly flickers.

Sorry was supposed to say that when it doesn't start if I open my door and close it again it will start first time.
