starting issue

Car started fine this morning, started fine again maybe 2hrs later but when I went to go home today turned the key and nothing..everything works fine when you turn the key like radio etc and can hear the lp priming but when you turn the key fully to start the car theres nothing, car starts fine with a bump start, anyone any ideas need it sorted asap as need the car over the weekend thanks

Sounds like starter motor bud. Im having the same issue. If you blip the key really quick a loada times it may finally turn. This is what ive had to do.

Yeah thats what I was thinking, tried that thing with tne key but no luck..

It literally takes mine like 50 times, it will do nothing and 2/100 times it will rabdomly turn. After it turns once should be fine again.

Awwright fair enough, ill try it again and see how it goes

Put a dab of loctite on the thread next time (but not too much or you'll have a bad connection). It'll stop it coming loose.
