These are the types of things that people should be sued for. It is crazed to take a car in and not even have the work performed and they still pass you a heft bill. I know nothing about cars. I've got to find someone in Tampa to work on this 2009 t…
I do all my own serviceing know. I dont trust any one to touch my car. plus its way cheeper and i know that my quality of work is better than what i can get at the dealership.

Thanks very much. I'll try it. The Owner's Manual is confusing.
turn key to ON and let computer come up to par, a few seconds, you will hear all kind of clicks and buzz.
no more noises = OK
now you are ready for touch start, just bump the key and away you go.
turn key to "on"
press brake
run shifter through all gears including manual shifter mode and back to park, take your time, a few seconds in each gear.
see if that works.
You do not have a problem... You turn the key until the engine just starts to crank and let go of the key... The engine will continue to crank until it starts... You do not have to continue to hold the key to the start position once the engine start…
