It was like 70 degrees over here and i was all excited about goin cruisin. Washed my car and went to DQ to get some food. I backed into a spot and went to go get some food. I come back out, get in my car, put my keys in the ignition and 45 mins later heres the end result.







FUCKKKKK

 

What happened?

 

That sucks but what excately happened?

 

Damn bro, but your TL is looking really clean!

Im sayin the damn tranny!

 

SOOOOOOOOOO............ What happened. The suspense is Killing me!!!!!!!!!!!

 

You killed your tranny again?

 

no this bitch just decided not to start. i had power to everything but the car didnt start. i had this problem once before and i towed it to acura. 100 dollars later they said my starter cable was loose and they had to plug it back in. im assuming its the same issue again. not payin their bitchasses again. Acura has really been pissin me off lately im really starting to hate their service. when my inverter blew out they tried tellin me my bulb went too, they tried chargin me 150 bucks for the bulb, i told them to shove it up their ass and bought an oem bulb on ebay and later it turns out my original bulb wasnt even blown. they acctually do live up to the name stealership

 

Did you try messin witht he starter cable to see if it would start.

 

i couldnt even find the starter cable. i had a buddy PM fsttyms1 to figure out the exact location of the starter cable but by the time he could get back to me it was too late. I wasnt about to sit at the DQ parkinlot all night long

 

So how much did it cost for towing. i'm sure it wasn't cheap. Maybe it wouldn't have been such a bad idea to wait. Especially if that's all it was.

 

d*mn stealership.. thats why i dont want to go to dealer for service..

 

that sucks bro..

 

b ah shitty night sorry lol

 

Stealership is definetly a local dealership with employees who are grade A Shit.

 

Did you try having someone jump start the car? Sometimes the battery has enough power to power the internal accessories fine but is drained just enough not to turn the engine.

 

it would still click though, im sure he would have noticed. possible though

 

acura roadside baby no cost to me out of pocket and im gonna make sure this gets fixed with no cost to me.

i should have tried a jump but i figured it would have atleast attepted to start. damn i really should have tried it now tht i think about it.

 

Where you at the Crystal Mall in Waterford, CT on December 2nd?

I only ask, because I saw the same car that day when I was leaving that mall.
I was driving my girls '06 Civic and just watched you take off... Well, if that was you

 

nope it wasnt me

 

Hope its just simple problem that will be easy to fix.
I agree about some Acura Dealer not living up to there NAME.

 

Check the battery cable as well. I had a loose battery cable before, and everything would power on fine with the key in ACC or On. But then when I cranked it, the loose cable wouldn't allow enough juice to go to the starter, and then everything would go off - eg: you could hear all the relays clicking off.

Good luck man. Sounds like you need to find another dealer with better service even if its a bit of a drive.

 

It's probably a simple problem.. if you hear rapid small clicking but the lights flicker as well, your battery's dead. Also, the starter cable's easy to check on, well, for the '99 it's easy to get to but I don't know about your car's year.. I haven't been under the hood of that car since I helped installed Mark's headers back in providence, RI. Look at it this way, it's not your transmission.

 

If they fixed the battery cable, it's probably something else like a bad battery or another problem. Always remember=Stealerships make their money by charging you for repairs and retail parts, which they make over 100 percent on. If they try to rip you off, contact the Stealership manager and complain in person. The last time I complained, at least I felt better afterwards. Being 6'4" and 225 pounds, dressed in a suit and tie=I can be quite intimidating. I complained loud enough so that everyone in the waiting room heard me. AHHHH=that felt good.

 

Sorry i couldnt get back to you soon enough. I was out of town, and that was the soonest i could get to a computer.

Starter cables always come directly off th battery to teh starter. You should have followed the cables off th battery. Did it not make ANY noise at all? If not im wondering if you have a bad starter or solenoid?

They arent all like that, mine has never been bad or tried to charge me for something else.

 

there was no noise when i turned the key

 

hmm, that sucks. hope you get it figured out and for cheap.

luckily i have a good place i take my ride to for service. it really helps when you're buddy's uncle owns the place. i didn't even get charged a penny last time i took my car in for a front end noise.

 

thats a bummer man, good luck!

 

well i just brought my car home. 135 bucks and they said a wire running from the started was loose. wtf, im soo pissed I figured acura fixed it the last time this shit happened.

 

Bring it back to Acura and have the reimburse you. They have a warranty on all repairs, so they should have fixed it for free...

Next, learn how to tighten this thing!!!
I had the same thing happen to me in my Bronco back when I was 17, but I luckily knew how to fix it.

 

well i didnt get it fixed this time at acura, so i dont think they'll reimburse me

 

How does your starter wire come loose 2 times??? If i were you id take the nut off the starter and put some locktite on it

 

Damn, that sux, sorry to hear that bro

 

Damn Homie, sorry to hear about this!! Dont worry, I got your back! I turned a few corners for you this weekend!!!

SSM represent that SSM fa sho!!!!!
