Welcome to the forum Tom.

Also Brian, first, welcome to the forum. Also, in case you didn't notice, you responded to a post that is 11 years old. Not necessarily a bad thing, just note it in case you don't get a response from the poster.

Nice man!

I think we need a little more history also. Was the car running before? What happened when it when it wouldn't start (was any work done to the car prior to it not starting)? Did you add anything, any mods or such? Any other information that may help to know what happened prior to it not starting.

Nope. Maybe it's trying to tell you that 82 is too fast when it's 115 degrees on the Interstate. Drive slow(ly). Let us know if it pops up again...sounds like a mystery!

Hey Andrew, welcome to the forum. Please note, if you didn't see it, that you responded to a post that is over 4 years old. The poster may not be active on the forum, or may not have the car any longer. Just wanted you to be aware of that in case you don't get a response.

I knew I shouldn't have responded to this post. I knew I would jinx it. And sure enough, I took off today and damned if the TPMS error didn't pop up. Driver's back tire. When I left to come home, it didn't come on again, but it did come on just before I got home. So yeah, number three down. As far as buying the sensors and stuff, I know I could probably get it done cheaper (we don't have a Big O's here...just Discount Tire and some local things), but sometimes it's just easier to get it done while getting other stuff serviced at the dealer. I'm too old to care anymore, and I can't do the stuff myself anymore. So I'll feed the dealer unless it is stupid expensive. At that point I can just dump the car anyway. But so far, I don't see that happening. It's doing me good.

What they said. I have a 2016, and replaced my first one about a year ago. Just replaced the second one a month or so ago. I'm sure the next two will be coming up before too long. Cost $134 at the dealer to change it out. I got it done while I had it in for oil change and other service. Easy peasy.

Thanks for the update. And good luck on the project. Keep us informed on your progress.

Thanks for the update and "fix". Always good to see closure.

Hah! Give it hell man, give it hell! You have nothing to lose with it, so might as well enjoy it while it lasts!

Yes, it is the 2.0L. I got the car a few years ago with around 75K on it I think. My son drove it for a couple of months before he bought a new car, and put a lot of miles on it. So far I have not had any major problems with it. I just got the rear camera recall done on it, and had the hood struts replaced. I replaced the battery a couple of years ago. Other than that, just regular maintenance. It is just over 100 K on it right now. I don't drive it a lot since I retired, but it is a great little car so far.

A dead cell used to be somewhat problematic "back in the day". I don't know if it is still an issue with todays batteries. But it does sound like a possibility. You say you don't have an Autozone, how about O'Reillys? They should also be able to test it. Or any auto parts store really (Napa, etc.).

Ah, yeah, maybe time to move on. Those nickels and dimes tend to add up pretty quick, especially in todays challenging economy.

I agree with enigma on the K&N cabin filter. I tried one on my Dodge Charger, and it let in so many odors, it was kinda worthless. Back to a factory type filter, and most of the odors were blocked out again. I had the K&N engine air filter in my old gas F-250, and it did fine for that truck. I never bought another filter, just cleaned and oiled as instructed. It did not increase HP or gas mileage, or anything like that. It did have a pretty neat roar on acceleration, but other than that, it just saved me a little money on replacement filters. I find it just easier nowadays to stick with manufacturer recommended filters, and don't try and mess with the aftermarket stuff anymore.
