Hi,

Thanks for replying.

It was a dead battery ( obviously ) the AA spent 1.5 hours trying to get it started, plugged in his computer which wasn't picking the car up correctly at all.

Then he realised the Engine management light wasn't coming on! The fuse had blown. a 3 amp fuse stopped the car from starting and wouldn't allow diagnostics to be done.

As soon as the fuse was replaced, it started without a problem. He ran diagnostics, all was good and cleared. And it was a new battery ( £70 )

So all in all an easy fix, but a pain in the ass to solve.

Hopefully this might help someone else who is struggling.

Thanks again
