Thank you! Saved probably 50% ... and so when they don't show at least I'll only be out half for what I would have been.

Yeah, I tried that, and end up on so many scam lists, it was crazy. I have no idea what's legit and what isn't.

Mine is all flaked out, half coated/half aluminum showing. To be clear, this is the strip at the base of the window.

Yeah, thanks for responding. It was 100 percent the starter. I had it fixed. I had to tell them several times to start there, but they insisted on giving me a new battery at first. So now I have an extra battery.

Welp .... did it again. And again, it responded to being jumped. You know, with battery leads, not off a ramp

Awesome. Great to know, thank you. Now ... do I spend my weekend on this or sanding off the surface rust on my sliders?

Thank you for taking the time to respond, I'll look into that. While it's a 99, it only has 130k miles. I did try the neutral lock-off test, and that seemed to work in terms of it starting, and, I do shift into park rather gently because I'm in a very tight garage and just think "Oh, let's be...

So ... it happened again. With a new battery, it's run for about three weeks, started every time. But tonight, same thing again, it wouldn't start. Clicks, all lights come on, etc. Then, after about three hours, it started. Really odd. So basically, every few weeks it won't start, then suddenly...

Good reminder. My issue is simply no cranking, which is indeed more indicitative of a bad battery. Thank you.

Same here with a 99 LX.

Sooo ... I thought I may have had a battery issue, because it started after a jump, but all tests showed the battery, alternator and starter were good. Two/threee weeeks go by without issue, then, it happened again. All normal assumptions would be battery, because it starts with a jump. But then...

It isn't. This guy doesn't even have parts. He's just stealing money from people. Totally on me for not being more aware. I hope he dies of face cancer..

Sounds about right. He even called me a couple of times on IG to "explain" the situation. I mean, it's easy for a scammer to lie.

THIS IS THE MOTHER-EFFER WHO SCAMMED ME. So glad I came here to figure this out. Sorry for yelling. Told me the same thing.

I'll spare you the details, but I think I've been scammed. Thankfully it was only $200. Sucks balls, of course, but could've been way worse. Anyone seen this dude in your feeds?
