The problem started on july3, car all of sudden wouldn't start. Prior to that there were no warning, so I took to auto shop and did tune up; after that it stared driving like brand new car with no problem but week later it stared again. First it wouldn't start but while it did and as I started to drive it stared to hesitated and stop working. Took back they said may be air valves, after checking that and changing the AC filter it stated driving brand new, week later same problem so went and replaced the batteries, put fuel injector cleaner in gas tank and it stared driving like brand new. But from last evening it's acting up and it started this morning but it was stop and go and flittering, hesitation. Please help

Won't start means not cranking at all or cranking and but not firing up?

Thanks for the reply. So when I'm driving it will flitter and stop or it will do the same when parked and then ready to start. so to answer to your question once that happens it will crank up but there is no fire.

Start with a check for trouble codes.

The above link explains how to go about finding out what is missing causing the non starting.

Let me know what you find.
