It's been a couple of days that my car won't start right away. It would sound just fine but would not start unless i press the gas. Today won't even start at all.

So, keystart sounds ok, battery is just fine, but don't know what the problem is.

Is it something with the ignition? Fuel pump maybe? Have no idea. I just see the check engine light go crazy. I used to get codes 181, 186 and 189 by the way which i haven't done anything about it. My car wasn't running that good since then according performance.

Anybody has any suggestions or ideas? Somebody with similar probs?

PLEASE HELP!!!

Well you can hear a little WHinning noise coming from below the back seat when you turn the ignition on DONT START!! if you dont hear it then fuel pump is ..

I think you should start with basics check for spark then Fuel.. once those are counted out then you can look else where.. But those 2 or the most critical to starting a car.. Keep Us Posted!!
