Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Went to my foot doc for a follow-up this am in the c4s Went to leave and realized the car was 100% dead... No juice... Nada. Called my awesome mechanic (thank you again ROCS!) and brainstormed.... Tried a few things and no dice Best course of action... Tow to the shop so he could look. Called AAA and a very nice young guy showed up and we set about popping the front via the fuse box post so I could liberate the tow hook. He said "you know.... I have to try and jump it... And if it starts I can not tow you for free" We opened the battery cover and found the negative cable completely off the negative terminal! Put it back on... Tightened up.... Boom... Starts right up! I gather that the broker I purchased from about 6 weeks ago had disconnected the batt ery when in his warehouse and never Tightened when he put it back! Can't wait for a little better weather so I can get outside and go through the car! All's well that ends well!

POST 2Original post

It is always the little things. When my car was shipped to me, the PO said the car had never leaked a drop of oil. PPI confirmed that. I get it off the trailer and I instantly put it on the lift. Oil. Dripping. No Bueno. I did not know that there was supposed to be a little brown plug on the camshaft. Yeah, that plug keeps oil in. Somehow, it just popped off during shipping. $10 plug, $20 express shipping from Pelican Parts = Happy DC Josh
