My T4 has decided that it doesnt want to start, put the key in, turn, no lights on dash, no power windows, no seatbelt warning sound and constant turning over, not catching and starting. I was stuck in council carpark the other day and volkswagen assist first sent someone with battery charger pack saying it was my battery, he gets there and says nope, you have plenty of charge. I call them back, get them to listen over phone and then they send towies who can't get me out (unless they want to turn my into T4 Cabrio) so they have a fiddle with fuses and it starts! I then drive to dealer who aren't that keen at 10 mins to 4 on Friday afternoon, and seeing that she is going, I drive away with fingers crossed that the next time it happens, I will be able to be towed. Well, today she has done it again. I am currently waiting for towies now at home.
Phill (Syncro) has suggested it's the Ignition Switch...it's like it immobilised itself. I have tried using my other key, but no difference. Now I apologise in advance if anyone works at the dealer here in Newcastle but I have absolutely no confidence in them. They don't like me and avoid me, I am sure they hide when they see my Kombi pull in to the service area. I don't take it to them for servicing, its only from taking it back for warranty issues like power windows and airconditioning button and when they damaged my doortrim...I'll stop there, but you get my drift..
My mechanic doesnt want to do it as he has trouble getting the info from VW regarding electricals and I don't blame him. Now has anyone else ever had this problem or know what I should expect them to say is wrong?
