evinX Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Back of the car or back of the engine? If its the car it could be the fuel pump your hearing which is normal. If its on the engine what kind of sound is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wysłane z mojego SM-G950F przy użyciu Tapatalka A bad battery wouldn't cause the symptoms you described in your first post. The key thing is that your car initially failed to start, then without doing anything, it started fine on the 2nd attempt. If you have a bad battery you usually get a very slow crank, or just a fast clicking (I guess from the starter motor or associated relays).

ShawnPreece Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 My guess would be starter motor mate as they can get sticky, had to change the one on my black Supra only a week or so ago but apparently a refurb kit does the job perfectly too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
