In my experiance 9/10 its the battery when your car suddenly doesn't start. Get a jump start or take her out for a charge.

Then start to look for other faults

Is the engine crankin at all lad? That was like a problem i had with the glanza 2 days ago , but the battery seemed fine all the dash lights all came on but the starter wouldnt crank? Eventually it did with a pull from another car, any one know does that mean the starter is goin or what?

Your battery may still be fucked.

My glanza had all its lights come on, stereo working but not enough power to start the car. That pull from another car gave it the extra to get it starter, seems like a battery problem. Have you taken it out and charged it?

well lad, well i tried jumpin it but was no good good, i never checked the terminals though.. The car is starting fine now but i know it will happen again, if the battery was completely wanked, would it not go from a jump? P.s. asimorpts sorry for hijacking your thread lad,..

If a battery is completaly done in sometimes it won't start on a jump but im guessing if its starting up now and again then it could be something else mate.
