Hi hope some one can possibly shed some light on my currents problems.
These are the symptoms and occurrence of events -
Two weeks ago last drove stilo all was fine on journey outward but when I left friends house turned key and it cranked but didn't start on first key turn second turn started fine thought nothing of it, car had been sat at friends for about 3 hours. It's done this once before but not taken any notice of it.
This week on monday went to start stilo got in turned key battery flat would only just turn over but wouldn't start... ok I thought battery knackered fair enough it's five years old time for new one... new one ordered varta silver(http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/281219458825?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649)
fitted battery today went to start stilo engine cranks but doesn't start. engine turns over with more umph than ever before so I am pretty sure battery has enough charge.
No other symptoms since car was last running fine, no errors coming up on dash, not plugged fiat scan in yet so unsure if fault codes are stored.
Any ideas?
thanks
