Well - is there? If so, you need to know about it. The >battery is fine and i had to run it through the gears a few time to get >it to start up. Not sure what that means - how do you run a car through the gears if it won't start? If it is not starting at first, but then does finally start, it sounds like you are not looking at an anti-theft device, unless you closed and re-opened the lock system in your efforts to get it startted. It happend 3 times this month. Has this happened to >anyone? Could somoone help me !!!! > Mine has an anti-theft fuel cutoff, and I've seen quite a few others that do as well. If you leave the car unlocked for even a couple of minutes without starting it, it will not start any more. You have to re-lock the car, using the cemtralized locking system, and open it again. I HATE the thing. Not only is it a nuisance, but I'm concerned it will lock me out one day and I won't be able to get it started at all. Is this what you're looking at? GF
