Start button
Anyone had any problems with the start button no responding
I have full power and a hot battery but when I push the start button...nothing!
I usually have to push it three or four times till the car fires right up !
Have the start buttons been known to go out?
Its almost like bad contacts ..if there even are any

Any problem opening the door? Any message on the DIC?
Next time it happens, put your fob in the glovebox slot.
Other thoughts:
-- EM interference
-- cell phone interference
-- weak/dying fob battery
-- damaged fob
And of course there might be a problem with the start button itself. But I don't recall this being a common issue.

It should always at least attempt to start with only one push of the start button. Anything else would indicate a problem and a potential trip to the dealer. This is not a common issue with the C6.

I have had a "No FOB detected" once. I had an aftermarket hand held tuning device plugged into the DTC and was going to program a test tune into the car. The hand-held was interfering with the FOB. Similar to the blue tooth problems and cell phones.
