Hi,

Has been to 2 garages and checked for all the obvious, the ecu was rebuilt and battery changed. But every time it goes to the garage it starts working again!!!
So they cant fix without there being a problem. Any suggestions welcome. Is a A class 1998 A160 Elegance.

Thank you in advance

Jenny

Yeah if i remember rightly. Would that cause it to start sometimes and not others? Whats the solution?

Thank you

It would, a new starter is the only cure if this "is" the fault!!!
