Renault Grand Scenic starting problems

I have an 05 plate Renault grand scenic 1.6 petrol and i am having problems starting it. Every now and again (usually once a day) when I start the car the engine makes a loud rattling noise abit like a diesel sounds and then cuts out once I try to re-start it always starts second time around. I took it to a garage but they told me everything is ok and they could not find any problems.

Any ideas?

05 Renault Grand Scenic. No dipped headlights. Bulbs and fuses OK

Are u sure that the bulbs are OK? I had no dipped lights on mine, & thought it must be a fuse or another electrical fault. It turned out, both bulbs had gone. I think this often happens when one side goes, the other soon follows.
