Ok I was just moving my car to do an oil change and replace a coolant hose that started to leak yesterday afternoon. I go outside and start her up she is just fine then the engine dies. I go to restart her but nothing not even a click from the starter WTF. Then I figured that it was the battery so I jump it with my other car and she starts up fine and idles great. OK two or three things freaked me out I tried to start it about 4-5 times before jumping it an a couple of times I turned the key and I get this alarm buzer thing and the tach goes to a thousand RPM WTF!!!! all the time the engine is not turning at all. and even when I get her started the alarm thing goes off and does not stop what could that be. Could it be the coolant hose that is fudged up or what I would leak a lil coolant if the car reved passed about 3.5k rpm so I drove the car home easy so as not to loose all the coolant.I am going to take the one from my GXL parts car for now until I get a new one. What the hell could have caused all of that.???????

Thanks!!

Are you still having problems? Does it happen every time you start it now?

I was just going to start it again and nothing I think it is iether the battery or the alt. Nothing has been disconnected I am going to jump it again to check if the buzzer still goe off I added as much antd-freeze as would fit in the thing and cut the part of the hose off that was leaking it had a small whole in it.
