Hi All,
We have a 53 plate 1.6 petrol renault scenic. The car starts no problem when cold however from time to time when the car has been running for a short while, you stop to get the paper etc, get back in the car and the engine won't fire up no matter how long you leave the starter motor trying!!!
You have to let the engine cool for an hour then it starts again. We have called the RAC out a couple of times and to our embarrassment it starts no problem when they turn up.
Any ideas? Some temperature sensor? or the engine fan not working?
Neil
