Update the first
"Can we put a new battery in it, because it's not running long enough for us to diagnose the problem?"
Well YEAH put in a battery - but I'm curious as to WHY they don't have a battery for just this purpose - which they won't necessarily have to charge me for. For, you know, testing purposes.
But maybe I'm too fastidious. And think service shouldn't necessarily cost me $150 before it's looked at.
This is here to remind me to find a mechanic I trust. For the next time.
(also, yes of course the Check Engine light is on. it's been having a bad WEEK so far, a Check Engine light is the least of my issues!)
(and honestly - are we sure a new battery is going to fix this issue? I just don't think so but hey, I don't fix cars for a living what do I know?)
