So over the last couple of days, my WK and I haven't exactly been getting along well. First it was the constant battle I've been having with a brake dragging, and needing new brakes. At the same time when I'm trying to figure out where its dragging and how to fix it, I see something leaking underneath towards the rear. Thanks to you guys, I found out its the pinion seal. Apparently not a tough fix, but being the middle of January, with no garage, and limited tools, its not something I can try to tackle right now. I decided today to make an appointment with my bro and law to take it in to have it looked at, which was supposed to be tomorrow. So tonight, I pick up my 3 buddies and we head to our men's league hockey game. When we get done we all load up and get in, and I go to start it... and nothing. I've got lights, radio, everything... but no start. I thought maybe the battery is drained and doesn't have enough juice?? So we tried to jump it and nothing. My next thought is the starter. I had a starter go bad on my last vehicle and I remember I pounded on it with a rubber hammer just to get it started so I could get it to the shop. Well I'm not very mechanically inclined by any means, and myself nor a couple other guys trying to help could find the damn thing. I looked up on my phone, and it said its on the passenger side, bottom of the engine, towards the back of the vehicle. Still no luck. So by this time its 1130, its freezing cold, and I'm just plain frustrated. Thankfully one of my buddies called his girlfriend and she came and picked us up. Its just so weird because there was no signs of any problems at all today when I went to and from work, went to my bro in laws house, nothing. And its never happened before. So I guess I'll have to have to towed to the dealer tomorrow. Hopefully its something simple, but I'm not very optimistic. Thanks for listening to my rant lol.
P.S. To make things worse, we lost 4-3 to end a 7 game win streak!
