I recently got my car out of storage for the winter. First problem started when my Dad tried to bring the car home well I was in school, he sent me an e-mail saying that when he connected the battery the alarm would go off. I went down with him later in the day and realized he was connecting the battery the wrong way :grr: . He thought the red was Pos. which it’s not. I fixed it and the car started up fine. Now the radio doesn’t work (it's a blachburt CD payer). Also the Idiot (brake lining, ABS, and Bat.) lights do not turn on when I put the key in the run position, the oil and P brake lights are fine. What’s wrong? Did he blow the lights?
The second problem developed this afternoon, I was going to pick up my brother at work and the car started to stumble and would not rev over 3k it would drive at about 2k but would lurch every few mins., It felt like the timing was off or the fuel was bad. I did fill the tank and put in stable prior to storage and the car was running fine earlier. I was thinking there was moisture and it got mixed up so I put in some dry gas. I am hoping for the best. Any other ideas?
I am going to talk to my neighbor tomorrow he's a master Mec. from Germany who works out of his garage, very knowledgeable about BMW, Porsche, and Audi
Please, if anybody has any other ideas as to what’s going on please help me.
