Stupid me!!

I stopped by petrol station and fill up my car, after paid and get back to the car and turned the key then all lights came on! I started getting panic and pressed the "I" button and see if any error message came up, nothing at all!

2 seconds later , I remembered my car is actually press start! Lol panic over

Thats pretty epic...

lol seen it happen too. Left the car at the body shop, and as I was taking off in another car I seen the guy trying to repark it. He was sitting in a car for a good 3min trying to turn on the engine. He was just about to get out to stop us from leaving when he opened the door and seen the start button lol

Took him a lot longer to realize that the wing mirrors were also with power motor.
But in his defence, there are no Honda dealers for hundreds of miles there and he probably never seen 8th gen up close

Also had it happen when I had my winter wheels changed. Guy sat there turning the key for 2min and finally gave up and called me that the car wasn't starting

It's funny every time!

Fiat 500s are worse standard ignition but if you turn it to kep position 2 (radio etc come on) then you cant turn it to position 3 to start! its flipping weird! you have to just turn the key and start if you turn to position 2 you have to turn back and start faster!

I am in the 'stupid' category too.
Sat there once or twice in a rush when new to the car, switching the ignition key on and off

..fuel cut off maybe

Your the one person i could never imagine doing that but i suppose your mind was making a billion calculations as to what the engine would be doing

I imagine you to be like sheldon from the big bang theory now lol

Ash101 · 28th August 2012, 22:03
