Waht is a PCM and a TSB? Do you think that it might be the starter. I am not going to go see the deealer. I have a mechanic that I use that fixes my car issues and I want to be able to tell him what I think the problem is. If I say that to him, He will think I am crazy, so coul;d you break that down more for me please?
