I have a 2001 Audi TT. Today, when I left my office for lunch, my car would not start. No noise, no lights, nothing. When I went to lock the car manually before trying to find help, suddenly everything came back on. The car started fine, and drove just great all through lunch.
After lunch, I drove back to my office, reparked, turned off the car, and took the key out. I sat for a minute in the car looking through the owner's manual. When I tried to restart the car, again - nothing. No sound, no click, no lights.
I've had the car towed to an auto repair shop. I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem and might have some suggestions before I'm faced with a huge repair bill.
Not sure if this is important, but I did have an oil change three days ago (synthetic), and I've used my driver seat warmer for the first time in the last two days. I bought the car used in September, with 35,000 miles on it.
Any ideas? Thanks very much!
