if you meen it does not turn over then it does it is your starter on the way out.Could just be the terminals need cleaning as they are dirty(nae saying your car is dirty)

The worst case is you need new starter

you will get an exchange one cheap from Dingbro

Hopefully it wont be tho

 

Now if its turning over but wont fire,then there is loads it could be

From Fuel regulators to ECU (prob speaking aload of rubbish but it looks good)
