Why won't my Astra start?

Why won't my Astra start?

My Opel Astra 1.4 16v struggle to start in morning or when it stand for a very long time. What could the problem be..?

Our answer:

Hi Bakala,

We advise you bring the car to a mechanic and leave it with them a few days to check it over, as it could be any number of things. I'd suspect it's a fuel supply issue, maybe caused by a dirty fuel filter, but that car's engine's spark plugs are also known to crack, and it could also be an air temperature or flow measurement sensor fault of course.
