Thanks gents.

Sorry to hear about your car. I think the lightning might
have cooked your motherboard.
Hook up on the computer and do a system diagnostic and
it should determine the damage involved.

Well, it's just speculation... Only way to find out is to actually get a mechanic to check what is/are the problem(s)...

Hope it's nothing too serious... Keep fingers and toes crossed..

Maybe you can ask THOR too... and tell him to aim it elsewhere next time....

Richard Hammond conducted a test and he and the car survived... Maybe the voltage surge not high enuf...

Does the engine even crank? Any dash lights?
