The car makes a BRRRR with a clicking noise like the one where you blow out with your lips. I don't think its the alternator or the battery because everything else works fine.

 

might want to check the dizzy and the timing belt

 

Hmm...clicking noise, maybe starter?

 

Here's an update, i thought it was the battery so i went and bought a new one because we had to jump start it and the car turned on. So when i went to buy the battery and install it, it still did the same thing, we had to jump start the car with the new battery for the car to run again.

Checked the grounds and alternator and they're both were clean and putting out good voltage. My only last conclusion is at the starter. I turned of the car and tried to start it right away and it jump right up again. But maybe thats when it was hot, but when its cold i think its bad. Again my only last conclusion is the starter motor....anybody else?

 

Before you car completely stopped starting, did you have to crank your car a few tries to get it going?

 

the car died out of nowhere. It never gave me any signs before. Today it just kept on clicking and never crank over. I never had to crank my car a few times before it got going because it would just start right up.

 

yea its your starter, when its cold outside or the motor is cold car wont crank, same thing happend to me. If you have a garage, let it stay in the garage overnight and in the morning crank it, if it cranks then its your starter(reason it cranks is because the motor isnt as cool, so it doesnt take as much to turn over), take out the starter clean it out do whatever or get a new one and put it back on. When mine did this the magnets on the starter where fried(i think, if thats the case then u need a new starter).

 

Yeah, i'm getting one tomorrow from auto-zone. But i hear that aftermarket starter tends to die easily than OEM. They say if i'm keeping my car they would recommend the OEM starter motor but ****. OEM cost a lot

Oh snap my car takes a few cranks to start when it's cold

So Kyo, what were the prices you found?

 

Check your battery mine wouldn't start for like 30 mins, and i called my mechanic we jumped the car and all of a sudden the car start. so maybe ur battery dont have liquid anymore check that too....

 

I bought an aftermarket starter for $120, and thats the cheapest. Other aftermarket i found online were $150 and OEM = $300. Also it wasn't my battery, it had juice and what not left. We tested it with a volt meter and it was reading 12 and above. Me and starters, always having a problem with them and what not. Thanks for the help
