I bought a 2019 i10 car in September last year and now and again when you turn on the ignition, car won't start, turn it again and won't start, turn it 3rd time and it whinnys into life.
I am just in from the dealer who sold it to me (big concern) and he took it round to their mechanics and he came back to me and said computer said there's nothing wrong with it.
So I am in the position that when it happens again with me if I was to bring it back to them - it doesn't happen.
I know it couldn't be battery as after one or two turns your battery wouldn't start at all.
Don't know what to do now - any advice would be welcome cos salesman just dismissed it. "computer found nothing wrong".

This is common with diesel engines. If your's is diesel, turn the key until the ignition lights on the dash come on but don't try to start, wait a few seconds then turn the key further to start up. It may be that?

My woman, less than wisely, renewed her car for the latest version of the same model. Now it's so 'space age' with distracting warnings and other deliberate niggles that she ain't happy driving it. But the point is that it has a button to start the engine, one has to push the clutch pedal then press the button; but it occasionally doesn't work. And yes, the pedal is to the floor. The dealer didn't seem concerned when questioned about it, but IMO it should work consistently, yet it doesn't; implying an intermittent fault that they just aren't interested in.
