Due to other business the Mog was in the garage for some two weeks.
This morning I inserted the key into the starting lock, turned the key till the speedometer had completed the starting dancing and turned further to start the engine - and nothing (not even a slight clicking sound) happened. Yellow engine control light on, red battery charging light on, headlights did work, the valve presetting sound was there, but NOTHING from the starter unit.
The battery had no problems so far, but because of the two week brake I was not sure so got the car onto the loading unit and after 30 minutes she started like no problems ever before.
We had a splendid drive for some 200km with one stop for several hours and on the way home another stop at a supermarket.
There the CAR DID NOT START! I called a car emergency service who promised to arrive within 45 minutes. To get everything ready I opened the fuse box and checked the fuses. Everything OK.
Than I turned the key to check the alarm-lights and she started instantly.
I drove the car to my home garage, got our stuff out and checked starting procedure: lights and everything else OK, but not even a click from the starter....
Has anyone got an idea which bug is biting the starter?
Maybe only the battery to be changed (seems to be still strong, but who knows and I had something similar on a Landrover last year) or should I search for something else?
