Not sure anyone else has had this issue...
I insert keyfob and press brake and clutch, wait for all lights to go out and sometimes car starts on the button and other times not at all!
I have to take out and try again, sometimes up to three times.
Also start/stop constantly inactive, even in correct parameters. Could if be a low car battery charge causing this?
Was stood a while at dealer before I purchased and I have not used much.

Hi, the battery must be in good health for stop/start to work. Sounds like you need to get it checked out, if you don’t use the car very much it’s a good idea to leave it connected to a smart charger.

Thanks, I will charge this week and look at getting a smart charger. I will also try other key fob and see if sorts out the start issue. Got MOT booked next week too, so fingers crossed it all starts when they try to test it!
