if you try to start the car an it sounds like it wants to turn over but it doesn't instead it sounds like its out of gas than that should be a sign of a bad fuel pump. which really aren't cheap if it is out make sure you shop around alot cause mines went out on a 2002 Buick regal an they charged me way to much the part in it self was almost 300 i wanna say around 250 than the labor was a killer but i shopped around an i got pepboys to put the price down on meinekie an i guess it worked out okay still it was 600 dollars good luck
