ok more car trouble -Car died Friday night - at least it was as I pulling in driveway |
|
I circle around to back in - as I made the circle - the engine check light came on (normally it is on all the time but has been off for three days (cooler weather it sometimes goes off) - been that way almost since the beginning) - then engine died and oil light comes on - tried to start it - makes some effort and no I can not describe exactly -
I was able to push most of the car off the road and into the driveway - just the front end is on the cul-de-sac - thank god it is not a main road
I am thinking it needs oil or something right away -
I have AAA but have no idea where to take it to fix it or what to do
It has been having little troubles now for six months - I have ask it to please wait until I was moved - I am now moved - I figure I would get another car
1. There is one head light out now 2. The oil leaks from a stripped screw or gasket 3. the car failed to start about two months ago and called AAA and he jiggled the key and it started 4. tires need balancing 5. one tail light out 6. Engine check light is on most of the time
So I am lucky it died at home since I had just gotten off the highway
Any ideas, suggestions, anyone know a good mechanic/auto shop that might be willing to look at and tell me if I should give up the ghost on this one (orlando/seaworld area)
