Hi all my car has been playing up the past few weeks, it would start up ok in the morning but after short runs or if I put my foot down then stop. try starting again it would labour to start, it wouldn't turn over first time, then eventually it wouldn't start I would have to use jump leads to get it started. I took it to a garage & got a different battery & the alternater refurbished drove it away put a few miles on it ( fully charge battery etc) when I stopped car same thing again wouldn't start had to jump start again, took it back to garage replaced starter motor ( new one). It worked for a few days until today drove for approx 5miles stopped for 20mins, tried to start again nothing wouldn't jump had to bump start it. While at work have tried starting 5x & it starts first time!! not sure what's going on no codes have appeared on dash etc but a few times I've got into the car & the radio has been on safe mode & the date & time have changed.. all help appreciate. ...

check fuse block, maybe rust or bad contact.

Failing that take it to a dk member.

if starts when humped off easily sounds like battery shafted or dynamo not working
