Hi,

My Skoda Scout occasionally has an issue when starting especially when cold (below 10 degrees C).

The engine turns over but does not start and is often accompanied by a rapid clicking sounds seemingly from near the fuse box under the steering wheel. 

By tapping on the fuse box I can occasionally get it to make this rapid clicking sound.  I've created a video on youtube which shows the issue.

This tends to be a bit unrepeatable, I've been to garage on several occasions but it hasn't done it!

Does anyone have any ideas?

 

Clicking is caused by a relay or the solenoid cycling,  it's usually caused by battery issues.

I would second that. Get the battery charged or replaced and then check. A worn battery will struggle even more, when cold and if it is the original one, fitted from new, you are lucky its still starting at all!
