Hello,

I am having problems with starting my car.

I need to make the starter motor work for long seconds, to make the engine start up. It happens everytime when I want start the engine after a few, or a longer time of "switched off" state. Once it is started, it works well, and drives the car as it has to. (No problems during driving.) But if i park the car, and switch the engine off for a longer time, the restarting after it becomes difficult again, and have to make the starter motor work for long seconds.

It is a 2.0T 165 horsepower petrol engine.

I would appreciate any ideas what to check or repair...

Thank you!
