Key in ignition. Turn and a dull "click" instead of a lively churn of the starter. I have noticed that if I put the key in to get the dashboard warning lights ON - but wait for a few seconds - then at-least-one of the warning lights goes OUT. After that it starts as normal. The tardy warning light has the label "SRS" and I assume it relates to the "Side-Restraint-System" i.e. at least the door-mounted airbags and possibly ALL the airbags. Has anyone any experience or info about SRS, airbag sensors or strange warning light behaviour ? Thanks
