so my car wouldn't start, just one click and nothing... All power seemed good, wasn't losing any power, so benched tested the starter, and while it worked, it was really weak. would that make sense that it wasn't strong enough to even come close to turning the motor over?

 

 

I figured as much....

Of course, there is nobody that stocks it for the 6 speed.... Weird though that Autozone was the only place that didn't have a different number for the 6speed compared to the Automatic... everybody else has separate part numbers.

Well, other than going to the Dealer (over 400 bucks, would have gotten in on Tuesday) I found one from from Amazon (sold and shipped by Amazon) which I had next day aired (so I got it yesterday) for only 12 extra bucks, total was around 250 after a 50 dollar promotional gift card and installed and she's fixed....

Could have gotten it for around 150 from several places, but nobody could get it quick.
