2003 Type S - Random No Start
Randomly the car will crank and crank and crank, no start. Wait 2-3 min, try again, it finally starts but / ! \ is on along with VSC light. Turn car off, starts fine, no lights on. No codes. Frustrated since I am trying to sell her and this is hurting the process. Any guidance appreciated.
My troubleshooting experience is leading me to believe it could be any of the following, but don't want to spin my wheels needlessly....yet.
1.) Fuel pump dying
2.) A sensor of some sort (crank, cam)
3.) Vapor Lock
Thanks in advance!

Mr.Helpful Diagram
Sounds like Main Relay to me, Its common for the soldering of the fuel pump one to crack and make intermittent contact.
