Wow!! My car did the exact same thing on my way to the shop. Drove back home parked it. Started the next day, but did not want to drive it until my mate came to have a look. Since then sounds exactly the same as yours jimmysydney. Would love to know what the issue was please.πŸ˜”

Hi Phil, Mods and Admins.
There have been quite a few old topics that have been reposted on. I think that is partly down to the new "you may also be interested in" section that is now below the topic you are reading. That section just seems to find other topics with the same title so for this topic displays anything with 2015 or Ftype or R which then finds loads of old posts. Might be better if it did that but then filtered to only show last 3 months to keep people on track and looking at the latest info.

Back to the topic.
As the OP never replied hopefully the more recent casualty can provide a diagnosis and information to all.

In my opinion, I think the recent addition of the "You may also be interested in" section should keep including relevant topics (no matter how old they are) as this is very helpful.

However, I think the system needs to be updated (if possible) so that it better relates to the topic you are reading. This "Ftype R 2015 won't start, new battery" topic being a prime example.

Not a question of inspiring you just stating the truth for those asking questions on your thread.
Others have asked questions but you didn't reply.
