when i tried to start my car today, it made a wierd whirring and instead of the time on the clock it said error. this happened the first couple times i tried to start it but it did eventually start and i was able to drive to my destination. should i be worried about this at all or is it no big deal? my manual said nothing about what it means when error comes up on the display so i wanted to know.

could be a starter problem. The solenoid that pushes the pinon gear into the fly wheel could be bad. Take your car to a repair shop and ask them to do a diagnostic scan of the computer and this will tell you whats wrong or at least give you an idea.

Have your battery checked out. Our 2001 Malibu did all sorts of weird elec. things. It was the battery. Hopefully that's all it is. The cheapest thing to fix.

Your car sounds strange and has given you an error message of sorts and you are considering not taking it to your mechanic?

Sounds to me as if the bendix on the starter is getting bad.Have it checked at your local repair shop.

sounds to me such as you want a sparkling speedometer cable and you assert it gained,t go everywhere in 1st? it would desire to be the linkage needs adjusted or the transmission clear out. in the adventure that your vehicle has a modulator valve then it would desire to be undesirable.
