Anyone else have this much trouble starting their VR?


Recommended Posts

This may seem veeeeery stupid, and it probably is, but sometimes I have a real problem getting my VR to actually start. And I don't mean a problem with the starter or engine.

Sometimes when I turn the key, jack shit happens. The ignition comes on, lots of lights etc, but she doesn't start. And then after say 5 minutes fumbling around on the drive or in a car park (and looking like a car thief), the magic happens and that lovely purr kicks in.

I have a Logic 900 alarm and immobiliser, is there anything obvious I'm doing wrong? I try re-arming and disarming the alarm, but I am yet to find any pattern or trick to starting her consistently. I've only had her since Wednesday so maybe I'm just not used to it.

As Paul said mate, could be your ignition switch or reader coil playin up.

I had a similar problem with my car, drove it, switched it off, then it wouldnt wanna re-start, say for instance I had to put fuel in!! Had to wait for 10-15 min, then it'd re-start.

Problem was Immobilser on Clifford.

Initially thought was Ign.Switch, Wasnt! Then reader coil-Wasnt! So then had the alarm checked.
