Seriously, Thank you to all that replied and offered suggestions to try and help me out of my situation.

After leaving the doors open to try and get the heat out of the car, I eventually got the fuel pump to prime. Started as per normal.

If that is going to happen every time we have a hot day this summer, I may end up getting rid of the brant. Either that, or open up the sun roof a half hour before I know I'm leaving work.

Ive got an autowatch alarm going on it, which includes 2 point imobilizer, door, boot, bonnet and window breakage sensors. $530 including taking the brandt out and installation.

True Blue Alarms
Car Alarms - Mandurah, WA 0418 887 311

Hes based in Mandurah and Im in Rockingham so not sure where abouts you are. He was recomended to me by Stechnic and I believe he does some work for RMS also.
