2010 TDV8 Starting Problem
Hello all
Have a strange fault developed on our 2010 TDV8. Car detects smart key and comes "alive". However on trying to start all we get is a click and and you have to start again. Car will eventually start and then runs no problem, what do you think, loose lead somewhere? Anyone else had the same?
Cheers
Andy

A known problem with the TDV8 mate. You need a new starter motor. Mine was intermittent and then became more and more frequent. The new starter motor resolved it.WINNER - 2009 ‘Just Doing What It’s Designed To Do’ Award

this is more than likely your starter - beware, mine did this for months then seized and the car had to be towed!============
2010 TDV8 HSE - ooo laa laaaaaaaaa
2007 TDV8 HSE - superb car and very reliable

2012 - dearly departed, sadly missed.. to return in late 2013 with a new TDV8!
