Hi all,
I've got an issue where every now and again I have trouble restarting the car (987.1) if I've parked for a short period - such as to run into the shops.
I will turn over and fire for a couple of seconds, then just cut out. The rev needle drops instantly to zero and it doesn't sound like it's struggling or anything like that so I'm leaning towards electrical.
I'll turn off the ignition then try again - it will struggle to turn over for a second then fire, then cut out again. I can even rev it up to 3-4k before it cuts straight to zero again.
Rinse and repeat two or three times, then just as suddenly as the problem appeared it goes and the car runs perfectly. No power issues, no bogging, nothing.
It's embarrassing more than anything, but I would like to sort it!
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Jimbo.
