Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have an issue with my 1999 Carrera.. on Page 71 of the Owners Manual talks about Segment Display D, it is about the Engine Oil Level Gauge.. that Oil Gauge Flashes and for as long as it flashes, my car would not start.. that display appears right where the Clock is at.. Oil Level is good, but somehow my car refuses to start, I have to try switching my Ignition Key On/Off several times, sometimes up 8 times, then it finally starts... any ideas? By the way.. the Clutch switch was replaced hoping it would solve the problem to no avail... has anybody experience that problem? Any advise will be greatly appreciated.
