Default New Problem???

well after leaving the dealer I go home pull my car up the drive and take a nap, after that get ready for work and go to start up the car and nothing! WTF!. Anyways called the dealer about my problem and they said tow it back to them. Okay so i called a tow truck; tow truck arrives try to start the car again and nothing. Rolled my car down the driveway and tried starting again and wham starts right up!. WTF?? drove it back up the driveway turned off the engine let it sit for oh about 2 minutes and nothing again. Rolled it down once more and nothing. Car is off to the dealer once again =( . I'm thinking its the clutch switch? I dunno dealer is baffled about my explanation on the vechile. Well should get a verdict in about 2 hours. Any thoughts on wtf they did wrong?

Thanks Again

Default I'll go with "Failed to tighten the battery cables to the terminals"

since you already guessed clutch switch which is probably a pretty good guess.

I'm betting on the cam position sensor. Lots of problems reported as of late, including myself.
