I don't drive it much and now it won't start. Battery is good and I replaced the starter not too long ago. It is due for a 60K maintenance now @ 71K miles. The starter seems like it's not turning over the motor. Looking for local RX8 Guru to help me get it back up and running and perform the required maintenance. Before I stopped driving much I was getting the engine light on and I also get the radiator warning light but it's a sensor and not a radiator problem from what I learned. Anyway if anyone is interested in helping me get this up and running and lives close let me know. I live in Brier/Lynnwood area and have plenty of tools. My body no longer allows me to work on cars anymore suffer from chronic pain. I dread towing it to a dealer because they will charge me an arm and a leg and I have limited money to do this. I am willing to pay a reasonable fee. I am also open to referrals to a good local mechanic that is fair about what they will charge me to get my RX8 in good running condition. I hope to at least get it started so I can drive it to a good mechanic.

Op,

Please don't re create the same post across multiple forums as this is not permitted on the site.
