Problem with starting VRS

Featured Replies

Hi all

Recently started having a problem with my car ( 10 plate VRS petrol ) and wondered if anyone could shed any light on it before I take it to the dealers.

The problem is when I open the car with the remote and get it, put key in and dash lights up etc, and then I turn the key it just goes dead. No noise, no lights on dash or anything. Turning the key again does nothing.

To then get the car to start I have to open the driver door and close it again, at which point the dials on the dash slowly click back from right to left and then lights come on, several warning lights appear, the CD player resets and the clock on the dash resets back to 0:00

This did seem to start a few weeks after I had an Shark STS stage 1 put on, although I cant pin it on that as it was a few weeks after when it started.

I have therefore now this morning taken off the Stage 1 with the STS and put it back to original :S

Just wondered if anyone had any ideas what might be causing this ?

Thanks in advance.

Well I had the same issue this morning so I am glad to report its not the remap that has had any part in causing it, just wanted to rule it out.

Looks like it time to ring the garage...........
