i went to start the car last night after sitting in 10 degree weather for a couple days. anyway it turned over completed, acted like it would start then died. typical after a fews days of sitting. tried to start again and it would crank very slowly. i figured maybe it was the battery even though the lights were still very bright. i changed the battery and the slow cranking is still happening and it wont fire. dont smell gas.

right now im thinking starter. anybody have similar problems?

its going into a local shop right now...

......a dealer seems to have some good deals on 2007 mkz's..........

You didn't happen to use something other than the recommended 5W-20 at the last oil change, did you?

Battery was going to be my first suggestion, but you already addressed that. I trust you verified the cables are clean and tight?
