533i Won't Start (archive)

Posted by Nigel on May 13, 2001 at 20:15:12:

Hi Guys,

Until last week my 533i ran like a top. Now it won't start (most of the time.) Sometimes if I crank for a while (a long, long while; usually by now I am on jumper cables) the engine will start and will run perfectly (accelerates great, pull OK, runs smoothly.) If I switch off and let it sit for any length of time it won't start.

Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Nigel
