I have owned my 900s for about 4 years now and havent had any major problems with it, until this summer. Once after work i tried to get in my car and the battery was completely dead. After a successful jump it was running again for about 2 weeks then the same thing happened, so we tried jumping it again, only this time it didnt work - there must have been an error in the way the wires were connected, but it never worked - got it towed to a mechanic. After some diagnosis he tells me that a whole bunch of stuff was burned out... the fuel pump, fuel relay, ECM module etc... so after all this stuff is replaced the car runs great again. Only a few days later after driving somewhere i goto start up the car adn it never turns over, so i looked at the fuel pump and its not working. have it towed back to mechanic who says thet the ECM module he put in was faulty so he changes that and it works great again. 2 weeks later i stop for gas and try to start up, and again it never starts... sounds like the same thing to me, but he goes and somehow gets it started and drives it back to his shop where it does the same thing AGAIN... he told me the next day that he cleaned some electrical connections up and it was working but then later on it was doing the same thing.. I dont know what to make of this or if i should just ask for my money back and get rid of the damn car... any suggestions, help???
