Not to worry you here but i remember one guy on here had the same and it turned out to be his BSI at fault

As with any electrical problems i'd reccomend following the BSI reset procedure to see it it works

And FYI power save mode just turns off supplementary devices such as cd player etc, it wont affect the starting of the car!

But definately try BSI reset, then when it comes to waking the system up use a known good/fully charged battery

Ah thats not good then, just be warned it could end up coming in at a big bill (worst case scenario)

With any luck it might just be a crankshaft sensor or something smaller thats not working properly

Your car may have a battery in the boot as well as a battery up from in engine bay. They give some bother. The battery in the boot is to keep all the electronics powered.
Question, BSI reset? never heard of it!

disconnecting the battery three minutes after last operation does the same thing. Then waiting another three min to let everything reset.
