    I'm going to be honest mate, I didn't quite understand that, but from what i can gather its immobising itself then after a bit it'll turn over?
    Not heard that one before but it might be worth getting your ECU unlocked.
    There's a place in hucknall nottingham that does it, there called Bluehawk.
    Hope this helps you out a bit mate.

    Its hard to understand what you mean but from what i can understand you have either a immobilizer problem or faulty starter motor, you immobilizer should illuminate when you turn your key but should go extinguish after a few seconds.
