Default My 04 is doing nasty things to me??

The problem has happened 3 times already. When it happens I am starting my car and I nitice that the spoiler is going up setting still...HMMMM ..I wander. Then..click click click...it doesnt want to start. I let it set for a while and pray that it starts and then after a while it starts....HMMM. The battery is hot for sure...has anyone had this problem? Why in the world would my spoiler raise when setting still? Is the car trying to tell me something? I dont see anything in the idiot lights department to tell me that something is wrong or to check something....very confused..

Jeff

Thats a sure sign of low voltage...the starting and the spoiler. Double check you battery (load test). Sounds like it is going south.

Yep, it's giving you signals that it's go bad. You're lucky that it's giving you advanced notice. Check out what I posted today: click here

Battery is going bad. Your spoiler going up is a safety feature.

That is a awesome feature that the spoiler goes up when it needs more power.
It's like a baby crying when it needs food or something.

Don't count on it happening. Mine didn't. Just got the click, click, click.
