Car won't start!!

[syman1986]

Hi all

I have owned my Megane for just over 6 weeks an already im having problems with it!!!

The problem is that the car is not starting. I had a mechanic have a look at it an he replaced a sensor, Not sure what sensor it was! The car started fine an ran ok for the rest of the day then that evening wouldn't start. The car is turning over but its not firing. Sometimes it will start though which has my brain in a right mess as I can't understand why a car will start sometimes an then not start an then other times you can sit there an try for an 5 times then on the 6th attempt it will start. I have just had a look on a site about the power steering not disengaging an this may cause the problem as the problem seems to describe my car in quite vivid detail. As when its locked it doesn't start but I was messing about with it an again its started.

If anyone else has had this problem or knows what it is it would be a great help as im not enjoying not driving my car around in the nice weather we are having!

Thanks syman1986

Get the relays or starter motor looked at.
