my reanault clio 1.2 16v sport wont start, i have just brought it !!!?
my reanault clio wont start, i turn the key and there is nuffin this is really doing my head in. it starts teh odd time but no it wont even make a noise, i lifted the bonnet up and got sum1 to turn the key, and then i could hear a buzzing like noise, i have read the immobaliser is the cause, but i havnt got a clue what to do, i have got a mechanic coming to look but it doesnt sound very posotive, my imobaliser keeps flashing, all the electrics work, just not the engine. it worked when i got it but the day after its got nuffin please help .
Starter motor mate, the buzzing is the coil failing to engage, there is only 1 thing to try prior to replacing it, engage 1st gear and push it, just enough to trun the engine over, about 1 or 2 jumps of the gear, then try restarting the car, if it starts the the coil is ok and the gearage of the starter is at fault, if it dont start its the coil, either way a new one should sort you out.
