Hi all,
I've got a little bit of a strange one which I'd like some help with.
On Saturday I drove off for footy practice, parked my car, ran around like a loon for an hour then heard my Alarm going off- a young lad had knocked my car whilst getting into his.
Anyway, I turned the alarm off and carried on running around.
After about 30 minutes I called it a day and went to start my car. The Engine turned over but did not catch. I went to the bar for a coke, and came out two hours later, and it started no problems.
Today (nearly) the same thing. Parked up, my alarm went off I switched it off, it started and drove home, but then I got in my car later, and it wouldnt' start.
A friend of mine came out and checked with a volt meter and confirmed that there was no power going into the engine. Yet two hours later I went out and the car started. Again.
Any ideas whats with all this stop/start rubbish?
Its a 1999 Golf V5.
Cheers!
