This problem of the engine not turning over started about two months ago. Turn the key . . and nothing. Try again and it would start. Would only have the problem 2-3 times a month. Not temp or time related. Usually only took one or two more trys before it would start.
I put in a new battery - after 2 weeks it did it again.
being Friday the 13th - I knew I shouldn't have taken it out. Got stuck at a garage sale. Would not start for anything. Tried all three keys. I think it is the immobilizer - the green key flashes 5 times after I attempt to start it.
It is at the dealer now and will keep you posted as to what they find.
