hey guys just wanted to ask if there are any methods of trying to start a car that hasn't been started for weeks now.

I know that I should have started the car a few times a week or so but just couldn't find the keys for it.

And now I have... it just won't start.

Any ideas?

My car goes dead if it isn't driven for a few weeks - it's always a flat battery. Just get a car battery charger and/or jump start it and all should be well. If you jump start just remember to drive around for a while to charge the battery or it'll happen again when you go to start it the next time.

Maybe your battery is faulty ? although it does work from time to time but it's not holding the voltage. Otherwise have the engine running and switch on all the lights and aircon. Measure the voltage across your car battery if it drops below 12 volt. You could have a semi working alternator. Could be worn out brushes.
