Just checked the battery cable connections, but I am not sure if they are good. Can you give me some hints?

Yep, I've seen that before. If the battery connections look corroded or loose, that can definitely cause starting issues. If you are not sure it is better to leave it to a pro!

Thanks for the tip. I checked the connections again and they were indeed corroded. Cleaned them up, and the car started right away. Cost me 155€ in the workshop - you saved me a lot of time and money!

Sounds like a frustrating issue. Have you checked the battery cable connections? I had a similar problem once, and it turned out the connections were loose.
