[QUOTE=twh;1469350]Does your car have a manual or automatic transmission? All recent cars have a interlock with the clutch that prevents the car from being started without the clutch pedal in. If you don't do that, the car jumps forward as you try to start it if it isn't in neutral. That creates another problem - the clutch interlock relay can go bad. I had a Nissan Maxim that went though two of them in the 10 years I owned it.[/QUOTE

I'll answer this question. I have an '07 530i automatic with the exact same problem. Any solutions? Thanks

Hi guys. Newbie here to the forum. I thought the issue with this was my battery since I had replaced my starter two years ago. Guess what? I was wrong. Battery was fine, needed a new starter again. $900 later, good as new, running fine. Get a new starter.
