Only in the last luttle while when i go out to my car which is a mk4 1.4 golf 1998 sometimes i turn ignition and is just dead so have had to try bump start and it kicks back into life usually. Wont even let me lock car or open with key fob. As said doesnt happen all the time but has got worse ?  Any ideas would be much appreciated.... Cheers
