NO, im always use the clutch to start the car. What i meant was, just a few mintues ago. I pushed in the clutch and pressed the red button and then turned the key. Usually i clutch, turn key, then button. Idk whats going on with this shit but that seems wierd. w/e.
Just out of curiosity. Who starts their car like the way mentioned in the quote? I start by putting key in, turning it, clutch in, then push red button.

there is a cool item that came with the car that shows you where the dipstick should be, its called the "Owners Manual", for those of you too young to remember what a owners manual is, its a bunch of paper pages bound together into what is called a book, you open it and read it, the letters printed in the book make up words and they read just like letters and words on the internet.

And absolutely, temperature will affect the battery which would explain why it would not start and then start after the temp warmed up.

Hints why some cars come with cold weather packages that include battery warmers.

"In what sequence do you start your s2k?" would be a good poll question.
