Thanks all for your comments.
When i turn the key it is really not turning over at all. there is a brief moment of energy, but no real turnover, then just to clicks. There is power, as when i turn on the headlights they are strong. The oil is significantly low, so i'm wondering if there is indeed a lot in the sump.
I'm going to try these suggestions in the morning and see how things go:
- i'll start with the cycling
- then checking with the headlights on
- then the cut off button
- then a jump
- then i guess the gas treatment and potentially pulling the sump plug and oil (that one truthfully seems difficult for me in the apartment garage i have it parked in... so goes last)
Thanks again, much appreciated, let me know if any other thoughts.
