Battery flat?
Once upon a time you'd be lambasted for suggesting such an obvious cause. Sadly people are so feckin stupid nowadays that you have to.
The message from Conor contains these words:
I couldn't get the neighbour's Carens started the other day despite jump starting it from my running Audi. Charged the battery and away it went.
You need to jump start it with the -ve lead disconnected from the dead battery otherwise all you are doing is mostly charging the battery when jumping it.
The message from Conor contains these words:
It's worked with every other car I've jumpstarted for the last twenty five years.
just fixed the starter - broken earth lead to the gearbox! cheers!!
