help! my car wont start
 

I dont know what happened, I went out and it started but then quickly died, now when I turn the key it makes the sound but it wont start. my lights and all work so I dont think its my battery, what should I do ?

What kind of sound?

i guess he means the fuel pump engaging, the click you get right as you turn the power on for the car

the regular sound you hear when you put the key in the start position, before the car actually starts


as long as i hold the key in the start position it keeps making the noise but it doesn't start

that sound

anyone ?

Got fuel? Spark? You'll need to check these things #1

How many miles are on the car? Mods?

x2 mods, have you put in the Fidanza Flywheel lately? I can't listen to the video at work. What does it sound like.

59k miles
mods SRI, exhaust, volt stab, grounding, sts, HID's on a relay


I got it started, gave it gas and kept trying to crank it for a couple seconds ( like 5 ) then it started with a big poof of smoke from the exhaust

geez, that doesn't sound good. I feel for you man, it sucks when your ride don't start but that's why stock is the best.:)

Pull the plugs:thumbup:

if its really really cold by you might be the sri

I don't think so, I would check for spark by pulling each plug and grounding it to metal while cranking the car over, check fuel pressure.

Are there any codes stored?

no CEL, i have 59721 on the clock, 60k warrenty, bringing it in monday haha

uhh yea have fun with your warranty with your mods. Bring your wallet. good luck.

they can't void the warrenty because of mods unless they directly contributed to whatever broke

Vac leak maybe? Make sure your MAF connections are good

really weird but it could be a catalytic converter as well

hope so, cause my cats will be gone this week :]

They can still give you a hard time about it and try to void it.
