Funny you should mention this, I recently started to notice that the car will often only start on the second turn of the key. Is this a sign of a fading switch?

Idheaton gets the prize.

fastlap,

I'm not so sure about whether your problem is switch-related, but I noticed with mine that the key would not spring back after engaging the starter. also, it would take a couple of turns before it would start. problem solved w/the new switch. the nice thing about it (despite buying 2 switches ) is that they're one of the few p-car parts that aren't too expensive. (maybe because the switch is now made by audi)
