Sounds like the anti theft is not letting it start.When it doesnt start does it crank and not start or no crank no start?

Hi and thank you for coming back to me, it does crank and then not start. and after about 6 times of this it eventually starts.

Read the first half of this page to give you an idea of how the system works:

A scan tool can be used to communicate with the immobilizer to see
fault codes... if a fault is stored, then you can start with that.
If no fault is stored, then you need to check the individual components.

If you have a second key, try using it for a while to see if that
alone makes a difference.
