I replaced the battery through AAA on the spot. I'm again having the same issue, but no longer have AAA. The car will start with a jump, and continue to drive, I've driven it for 30+ minutes a few times in an attempt to recharge the battery with no luck. What could be causing this? In reading it seems if it was the alternator, I wouldn't be able to continue to drive it. As soon as I shut it off, it will not restart, even after a 30+ minute drive. I read the serpentine belt can also be an issue. Thoughts? Thanks for the help.

They push batteries, whether you need one or not. They do not sell alternators so when it goes dead again, they will try to sell you another battery. There are very simple tests to determine which one has the problem and you don't need an Internet forum for that. Have the car tested. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

It may not be either the battery or alternator rather the other 100 things that matter. It starts with a jump could be fooling you just added power and voltage if from a running vehicle temporarily overcomes the issue. Shops aren't all a horror show the tests to really find what needs what you could just ask for the diagnosis and pay for that. I write enough it's faster to go get it checked out in person with that, T   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
