My car won't start. I have had several boost with susses over the last few weeks. Today after a boost it did not turn on and the battery is tested and good. what is the problem?

I have added gasline antifreeze. I have had a boost on 3 separate occasions. I bought a new battery and went to the mechanic to have it installed but decided to have the old one tested because I bought it less than a year ago and the battery was good.

I believe it's a alternator issue. I had the same problem unless it's the terminals for the battery that don't let the power go through enough let me if it helps Pedro

My car starts only when boosted

Measure the voltage across the car battery with a volt meter with the alternator running .. It needs to read 13.4 volts or higher to charge the battery.

Why didn't the mechanic continue on & resolve the issue?

Door buttons not working since boost.

Can't be boosting today's car or bad things happen

Dead batteries have to be disconnected & charged

Now you will pay several hundred to diagnose those issues

SUV won't start, nothing happens when I turn the key

Very likely bad battery. Most places that sell them will install for free.

Manual transmission won't go into gear

Sounds like the clutch disc is toast.
Its possible the throw-out bearing has failed, but either way the transmission has to come out to fix either part.

Have to boost then it won't stay running

just had the same problem and i ended up having to change the altenator, for 2 or 3 weeks i would have to bang on the altenator with a hammer while it was running because my battery light would keep coming on. but after a few taps with a hammer you could actually here it start working again. i did that one to many times and broke the housing on the altenator and eventually had to replace it.
