Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

My 2002 M.Y. Targa has been sitting on the drive for the last 3 weeks (albeit with a cover on) whilst we've been having the cold, snowy weather. Came to use it today and I 'wakened' it and as I opened the door, the alarm went of - which obviously pleased the neighbours !Looking at the dimness of the interior lights it was obvious that the battery was low and I recall from a previous thread that this causes all sorts of things to happen to the car (rear spoiler activated, drivers window went down a couple of inches etc).
I've got the battery on charge now and wanted to know whether there is some sort of sequence for starting the car once charged eg will the immobiliser automatically re-set etc?
The car has a feature where after a few days without use, it goes into a sleep mode and the fob will not unlock. If you unlock the door with the key and start the engine within a certain time the alarm will not sound. Equally, if you turn the key anti-clockwise in the lock, the fob will then unlock the car (so no rushing to start the car or alarm sounding!) My problem earlier is now sorted. When the battery reached a reasonable charge, normality was restored - the car fired up after 2 slow turns of the engine. I've now searched my garage and found the battery conditioner I used with my previous Porsche (1986 model year 930) and will use it during the bad weather. Andy
how can you not drive the worlds best sports car for 3 weeks ? mine gets left for usually a week ( van for work ! ) and by then i need the fix eg speed , sound etc , yes i know the weather has been crap but at least awaken the poor beast from its slumber. my kid brother has a renault v6 clio , he found 2 mice nests in that after a few weeks and was lucky they did no damage except wee all over the dash ! but i suppose it is french ! 75pno
