starter

So I'm in a bad spot, my car's suspension gave out on me. That or the power steering, I really can't tell. I wanted to bring the car to a shop to have it looked at and potentially have the work done. After having it sit in my lot for 1.5 weeks because it broke down mid-move (yes everything is...

Hi, idk how this happened, honestly must be a spot of real bad luck. My suspension has issues now, got the car into my lot (I live in nyc) to let it sit until I had time to look at it. I go today to look, turn it on as it’s been sitting 1.5 weeks. Nothing, lights come on but no crank. Boost it...

Hello everyone! I've a problem with my Buick LeSabre 2005. It has only 138.000 km, the engine is good, but there's strange problem when I start this. I don't even know how to explain this, I'll post a video here. It has a strange sound. And doesn't matter, if it's cold of hot start. Maybe...

hello everyone! Sorry if this is a silly question, I’m fairly new to working on cars. My car will not start, when I turn the ignition key it just makes a one click noise. All the lights and everything work perfectly. I replaced the alternator myself about a year ago along with a new battery, I...

I've got a 1995 Roadmaster Wagon with the LT1 and tow package. Around a month ago, when it started getting cold, the engine started making a knocking noise on startup but dissipated after a few seconds. My initial guess was the oil pump wasn't getting oil to one of the pistons fast enough...

For a few days before my car died there was a squeaking noise coming from the belt area, and when I pulled up to a gas station, the car wouldn’t start again, and I tried jump boxes and jumping the battery itself with no luck. During the testing phase I just described, someone had damaged the...

For a few months now I’ve been having an issue with my LaCrosse starting up. If I don’t drive the vehicle for awhile and decide to drive it, it starts right up. If I turn the vehicle off at let’s stay a gas station or store and try to start it again, it struggles and the engine might not start...

Recently, my 2005 Park Avenue started to stall while driving, but would restart. Also, while driving, it seems to hesitate quite a bit, and the RPMs will go down, the shoot back up. And a couple times, it has refused to start. But started after sitting for a bit. What could the problem be...

I've been having an issue lately where intermittently my 09 Lucerne will display a the service airbag message when I insert the key. When I attempt to start, all of the displays and lights will shut off as if the car is starting like normal, but it won't even try to turn over. It's very...

Hey Everyone, new to the forum, got a question to ask, I have a 73 Electra 225 Custom with a pretty stout 455 and th400, and I need to know what the best mini-starter is for the money, to turn over my more compression, and what size the bolt pattern of my torque converter would be? I’ve heard...

Hey all you RMW lovers, i’m having issues with my 96. My headlights won’t come on and in order to drive at night I have to hold the directional signal bar back which will bring on my highbeams. This makes me think that my bulbs are working and maybe it’s the Sentinel or the dimmer switch...

Hello, new to the forum... not a Buick owner myself, but I'm here to help a family member with their 2012 Lacrosse 3.6. The car has 98K and is in a no-start state right now; it will click once and that's it, never turns over, etc. I've been all over the wiring and connections, tested the...

Problem: no power to the starter. Battery is brand new. The fuses under the back seat are good. Do I need to check the fuses under the hood? -----Thanks.

Hi guys im having some trouble with my regal. My old Ignition switch went bad so i decided to wire in a push button start. The only problem is that i can’t seem to get it to start. The button will turn on the accessories and attempt to start the car but the starter will never spin over. The...

Has anybody out there ever replaced a starter on an 07 Lucerne CXS? That's the big Northstar V-8, and the starter is mounted UNDER the intake manifold. I'm asking this question because although my starter has not failed, the car has 82,000 miles, and my alternator recently failed. So, I...

Hello all! I am new here and desperate! Ever since I shipped my car to Hawaii it has been acting strange...really strange! There are 4 main things I want your guys opinion on. 1. My driver side controls do not work at all. Lights still work but no controls. That means trunk, power lock, all...
