Default Q7 wouldn't start. Solution was a surprise.

So, I had left my Q7 in the garage for about 3 weeks without using, when I tried to start the engine, got nothing, wanted to start but couldn't. It was like it wasn't getting any gas. Recharged the battery to rule that out, still wouldn't start. Then after much frustration I locked the car and open again and the car started right away! I guess some theft system was on / working, so it couldn't be stolen?

I'm guessing it could have been that a part of the "system" did not load/start up due to a drop in battery voltage.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
