This is just now starting to happen to my car, but the times are so random I can not put a schedule together to tell my service advisor about.
Every now and then when I get into my car, I'll put the key in the ignition and turn to start but when the key is all the way to the start position it won't crank over the engine. I remove the key and try again, nothing. Sometimes this goes on for 5-7 tries before the engine will finally crank over.
At first I though it might be a safety issue and I must have my foot on the brake pedal or possibly when holding the key to turn I was also hitting the door unlock button, but still nothing.
The last time my car was in a BMW service center I asked them to check it out and they said the computer came back with nothing or error reports and they asked me to keep track of when this is occuring.
I'm just worried I don't want to be out in the middle of nowhere and not be able to crank my car up.
Thanks
