7thgear

anyways, i got back from toyota and they say that my battery is 100% charged and that they do not think that my car's starts are a little "weak". they say that toyota and scion have different ways of starting. toyota have some ignition called "gear..." starting and scions have "standard" starters. who knows, but i guess it's all normal. man, i was hoping to get a new battery for the fun of it....

Our cars start after a few "rollovers." If thats the case, its normal.

My car has weak starts too. Much more in cold weather when compared to other cars Ive had. And even in warm weather, it hesitates once in a while. But lately its been behaving.

I too get noises after I shut the car off. To me it sounds more like fluids boiling in in a trapped container. Then I also hear the sounds like metal clicking which is what everyone is talking about.

My last car made noises after being turned off too, but no where near as loud or as fast as the tC.

This car is just one noise maker! (rattles, creaks etc)
