Can you solve and argument?

jadefox, have you found the problem yet?

Just as an aside, have you checked/had checked the battery earths? These can be problematic if they aren't perfect and will affect even a new battery.

The early 203's were beset with electrical gremlins but got electrical contact can work wonders although I think a new battery may also help......

Kwak - I am definitely going to change the battery to see if that helps the problems - just had to lock the car on the manual "key post" rather than the fob coz the darn thing is playing up again

Reference the OP:
Typical woman - you've started a thread to help you win an argument, not to get help fixing your car!!

Because saving face is more important right?

Naturally. But of course I knew you blokes wouldn't be able to resist telling me how to fix the problem at the same time so it's a win/win situation

Gulp!
I'm in way over my depth here.
This is that multitasking thing you do, isn't it?
