welp it was bound to happen sooner or later - REED - 08-01-2007

I have to give credit to honda, 7 years of nothing but oil and gas and not a single problem. until today. Just tried to make a quick run to the pet store and the car won't start. My completely uneducated opinion is the starter went kaput. All the lights/radio work so I would think that rules out the battery. When I try to start I can hear a "whirring" type sound but thats it.

I feel like this isn't something someone with my lack of experience should try and tackle on my own, w/o any tools, but I would realllly like to avoid having to push my car out of the garage and down the alley for it to get towed.

thoughts?

Starting the engine puts a huge load on the battery - just because the lights work doesnt mean its ok. I would put $$ on needing a new battery after 7 years.

Some batteries wont take a jump. But if you've gotta jump it... its probably done for after 7 years.
