Starting Problem

Hey, have any of you guys had a problem where when you start your car it makes a sort of whining noise? It's been doing it on my car lately (usually when really cold, but sometimes not) and this morning it was really bad. I started my car and it did it a good 3 or 4 times and then it seemed like my car was going to stall.

Oh yes indeed. Check out my reply to "Help" message in this section.

In brief, it's a known problem with the starter motor solenoid loosing it's grease. Get it out and re-grease it otherwise it'll stick one day and not start!
