   well today i started my car and left it for 10 mins and it ran but it was a bit lumpy so turned it of and then tryed to turn it on about 5 mins later and it wouldnt turn on it makes a funny clicking noise but wont start. the coilpack is brand new, ive tried 2 different starter motors and the green light seems to be on on the battery. can anyone help solve the problem??
   
   cheers matt

   stupid question but are all your fluids at their correct level. coilpack is to do with ignition is it not? if so then an earth to your started motor might be bad.
   
   you should chack all your wiring i.e check everything that is free to check before splashing out
