Hi,
I'm a new member of the forum and after much browsing I can not specifically find what i'm after.
Basically, I have a 52 plate 2.0 20v ALT - manual - 195k on clock with a intermittent starting issue. When cold it takes a few seconds to start, when started it runs and drives perfect. After a journey, noticeably a short journey but the car is up to temperature it takes 3-4 long cranks before it starts (if crank for too long STOP appears in centre display), again once started in runs and drives fine.
Ive only had the car a couple of days and become noticeable when installed a sub, so suspected battery maybe??? Currently has a Halfrauds battery (HB013 - 480CCA - 56AH) ... Battery may not be man enough.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers Ben
