hello, we have a nice '96 960 with about 100,000 miles. a very nice car. purchased maybe 6 years ago when it had 38,000 miles. twice now, (last Sunday!), we put the key in the ignition, turn, and see all the nice dash lights come on. we even hear somthing in the back (feul pump), but the starter makes no sound what so ever! it sort of behaves like it might be in gear. so we pushed that button and manually took it out of park and to drive, then back to park. did this a few times, but it made no difference. when it happened the first time, we acidently slammed the right passenger door a big harder than usual, and presto! it started right up. this time, i thought i would be a real "expert" and checked the fuses (under the hood). they were all good. so i tapped on the relays that are there next to the fuses. all to no effect.
but upon slamming the hood closed, it started right up! so, this has happened only twice in 60,000 miles, but it sure is concerning when it does happen. any ideas of what to change out? thanks
