Renault Clio Starting Problems/Overrevs?
I just bought a Vreg Clio, 50k miles, and sometimes it takes more than one attempt to start. It then runs fine. But twice now it has taken about 6 attempts to start, the battery cuts out (clock resets itself), and then it sounds like its high revving even though I am just sitting in idle. The only way I can describe the sound is like a loud constant rev. When I press the accelerator, you can hear it revving even more. The last time it did this, I left it for a bit and then it was fine.
Any ideas? Typically it's Sunday so no garages open to get it looked at!
