Hi i have a 206 gti.

I went to start my car, but I had accidetly left it in gear. After
that, it would not start...the engine kept on turning, but would not
start. The only way i got it going again was to clutch start it... Is
this a common problem?

Thanks

Blake

This is very strange,never heard of this before, dos it start now with
out turning the key while in gear?the thing i would check is all the
petrol pipes for leaks,spark plug leads,its a thing that i dont think a
lot of us on here have heard off.this problem.

Yeah, now start no problem at all....Maybe fuel computer putting a fuel
map on that the car can not start with?
