Have you checked the battery? I mean come on, common sense tells you, you need voltage to start a car. Did you try jumping it?

[bhester]

are you fucking kidding me no shit i tried jumping it several times before and after fucking with the starter how about the next person answer with something actually helpful rather than some dumb shit trying sound smart because i didn't think it was relevant to say oh and by the way i tried jumping it but it didn't help fuck you jr_ss you god damn retard :wackit:

Try checking the battery ground, on my car I got just a click when I turn my key, then nothing else, I took my ground off and filed the end that connect to the car/motor and put it back on, it struggled but it cranked afterwards, then it started knocking...

[bhester]

thanks but i gave up and just had it towed to the shop. hopefully there's nothing majorly wrong.

Did you try smacking the starter with something? Mine did similar stuff and my starter was going out.

[bhester]

i smacked the shit out of it but it wasn't having it thanks though

does all your elecrical stuff work? radio? head lights? could be starter?? if it doesnt crank.. or if you have hid or subs or what not, try checking the connection to you battery, cuz something like that happened to my sc400.

just hope its not your starter :/ extra money out of pocket you know?

[bhester]

the mechanic just called said it was the starter, but yeah everything was running fine the radio and all the clock never reset im just glad thats all it was yeah its a little pricey but what could i do ya know:o

[dksil80]

yeah man,, its a bitch when the starter goes out. money you really dont thnk spending,,, shit i would of bought something to put on my car thats worth 3, 400 bucks. well, atleast its a small problem. good luck dude

Why couldnt you just change the starter yourself. Pretty simple thing. Unplug the battery, raise the car up, disconnect the 2 plugs/wire into it, 2 bolts off, starter out, put in the new one and reverse the process. Fuck paying somebody couple hundred bucks for a 30 min job.

^ agree, and you can get ones for cheap too, if your not picky just get one off craigslist for $30-$50 and make sure it's tested first

[bhester]

It's automatic right now so it's a bitch to do the base mechanic is cheap any way and I don't want some cheap shit
