dammit, my car died!

It wont start. It's not the battery, I think it's either the starter or solenoid. I had to walk home from work and leave the car there. It's 100 degrees out and about a mile and a half walk. I feel like crap now. Ugh, I hate when things break.

Wasn't it broken in your friends with over-protective parents thread?

First thread

those solenoids are a pain in the ass

my dad's truck's starter is just fine, but sometimes the damn solenoid wont send the imput to the starter :|

Car breaking down is pretty high there on my list of "fears".
Sucks when it happens. Thats why I try to make as much money as possible so I can upgrade to a new car as often as possible....

yes, but no one liked that thread, and besides, that thread was about flaky friends, and this thread is about broken cars. The fact that they describe the same incident is irrelevant.
