Well, if it's make a whirring sound, it means two things. 1. The solenoid on starter is failing to engage. 2. you're gear teeth on starter or FW are worn

Well, if it's make a whirring sound, it means two things.

1. The solenoid on starter is failing to engage. 2. you're gear teeth on starter or FW are worn out. (I doubt #2 is you issue, but you never know)

Either way, you're replacing the starter.

Since its not engaging, have an assistant start the car for you. At the same time, put your head in engine bay on driver side and listen for a distinct click.

That should be the solenoid. If you just hear whirring, the starter is only turning not engaging bu solenoid.

***MAKE SURE YOU ARE IN NEUTRAL AND WHEELS ARE CHOCKED.***

Make sure battery is fully charged, since you have been rinsing and repeating a few times.
