0. Need someone good with cars... 11/02/2009 02:26:46 PM PST
Ok so i just bought a cheap project car and its having some problems that i'm not to sure how to fix... first it makes a sound thats very hard to descibe, somewhat high pitched, when i go faster it gets louder and when i slow down it gets lower, when i'm at a complete stop it doesnt make it at all, i think its something with my rear but not entirely sure... also i'm 16 and cant drive alone yet so my car kinda just sits in the drive way for now but so the battery doesnt die i go out every night and let it run for a little bit and let it charge up and what not but one night i went to go start it and it woulndn't even crank, the lights flickered and it made a clicking noise...
anyone able to help with this?

Your battery won't die from the car sitting for a long time. :\ If that was true, car lots would be SOL. You starting it and just sitting there in it is probably why the battery is dead now.
The noise? Could be a tire or something, or you could just take it to someone who knows what the hell they're talking about... Not a WoW website.
I've actually had a raid leader say this over vent.

Your battery is probably dead, maybe an alternator problem causing it not to change. Batteries just die sometimes too, but if your not turning over its the battery. As for the high pitched noise, check out your transmission, it may not be shifting correctly. A low gear going 50-60 is bad news.

I hate people, why? Because they are so hateable.

I'm going to look up your main character and nerf its class so you have a legitimate reason to post on the World of Warcraft forums. :p
Please do not post off-topic threads on the General Discussion forum. It's not for discussing any general topics you want. It's for discussing general World of Warcraft topics.
I'm glad I got my suit dry-cleaned before the riots started...
