Over a period of a few months I had a series of ongoing electrical problems; starter wouldn't crank but when left a few minutes, hours or overnight it would start first time and do so for several weeks. Also, intermittently the instruments would fail to work but switching the ignition on and off set them right. Finally, I was stranded out of town and paid half my annual salary for a new battery. I have not had a problem since (two months) but unfortunately now can't afford to go anywhere! Hope this helps
