BRZ Battery died, when I tried starting it it made a terrible noise.
I killed the battery on my brz and it when I tried jumping it, it made an awful noise. I tried pulling the battery connection to reset the ecu but it still made a bad noise? I'm towing it to Subaru, since the drive train is under warranty. Any thoughts?
|
What exactly made the noise? Starter?
|
You're going to need to be A LOT more specific than "awful noise" if you want useful help from people online.
|
Most likely was starter relay clicking from not having enough voltage/amperage. Charge the battery and re-try. I bet you will be all set
|
It sounded like a metal can full of marbles...Sorry about the brief post; I was out waiting for the tow truck and freaking out a bit. Once the car moved I got to see the pool of oil under the car and some pieces of a bearing...I am thinking that the engine is Fucked.

The only mod I have on the engine is a Perrin Intake and Inlet Tube; which they saw when I got my yearly inspection and they said nothing about. |
Yuck. Good luck with the warranty. It surely must have been a horrible noise to do that.
|
was it a really rapid tapping sound? Because thats the sound of the start relay when there is not enough voltage to turn the engine over.
|
It was pretty awful...imagine putting metal ball bearings in a blender
|
Motor blowing up while starting not too likely. But...alas keep us posted. Sounds like starter grenaded ..
|
Would that cause the oil leak? It leaked on the truck as well.
|
Hmm I didn't see the pictures before I posted. I got no advice. Good luck.. Hopefully its nothing catastrophic.
|
Is it just the picture or is your oil really that dark? 5k miles on an oil change should not even be that dark.
