Starting failure

Skoda Octavia 1999  120000 miles
When starting the engine, it sometimes happens that it starts on the first try. But there are other times that a kind of hit is heard and the car does not start. It is necessary to try many times closing the switch and, after lots of attempts, it finally starts. When the engine is demanded too much, it suddenly stalls; I then need to wait 5 minutes and it starts again. When scanning it, no error is indicated. Thank you so much to anyone willing to help me.

Try using hammer on the starter, have someone start the key and hammer on a a bit. If it helps your starter is KO

Gauges and starting failures

Skoda Octavia 2000  145000 miles
For a while, I've been having problems with the gauges, as they usually work for a short period of time and then change to zero. I was told to change the dashboard. I have always thought it was a short circuit, but the electrician told me it was an electronic problem. Another thing that I wanted to share is that, sudenly, when turning the ignition key to start the engine, it does not respond. It seems as if that last move of the key was blocked and the engine cannot be sarted. I really do not know what to do.

It happened to my car that the gauges were working properly and suddenly turned off and the problem was the ignition switch on the back. Two wires had joint because of the heat and were in a short circuit. I changed the switch and replaced the burnt wires and the problem was solved.
