Hi,

I wonder if anyone can help me here, I have problems starting a Peugeot 3008, 2010 sports model in the morning or after a long park.

This sounds sort of strange but if I park the car facing uphill overnight, the car won’t start in the morning. I then have to persist turning the engine over and then it eventually starts on the last turn of the battery.

If I point the car downhill, I have no problems starting the car.

The obvious solution therefore would be to always point the car up hill, but this is becoming a problem and is getting worse, because if I now park the car on level ground, it too will not start.

I have tried looking for a fault code, but was not one. I cannot be the only one who has had problems starting, is there someone who recognises this problem.


Many thanks,

Gordon

Moving to Norfolk

Moving to Norfolk would be a solution, but is that not a bit extreme.

Maybe, but if all else fails... ?
