    Have you ever replaced your remote key? You get similar symptoms if the immobiliser hasn't been disengaged properly. Try using your spare key and see if the problem persists. Failing that it might be the connectors in the ignition switch not making proper contact with the remote.

    Definitly start with the error codes. (How-to instructions in the how-to section)

    Yeah definately check the error codes, it could be a number of things.

    Possibles: Crank Angle sensor / DFI module, fuel pump, immobilisor / key head not making proper contact with the ring around the ignition barrel.

    Run the codes check, and then let us know what it spits out and we can go from there.
