2018 Si Coupe won't start (its dead in my garage)...

I don't know. My knowledge of towing is pretty much limited to watching a few re-runs of Sanford and Son. I know they can drag a car onto their bed from an accident scene w/o much issue though. You idea of wheel dolly's would be a great solution though and a whole lot better than using brute force.

because there are other cars in the same garage, I just use car position jacks (basically dolleys) to move my cars around. ....... all that being said, if it came to dragging the car out of the garage, I'd put some car dolleys under the rear wheels first........to try and cut down on the assorted violence.

I read this post when it first appeared and can’t remember if this was mentioned in any other posts, but have you thought about the fuel pump? If your car if turning over but it won’t fire, maybe it’s not getting gas.

I checked the fuses that were seemingly related.......but not the actual pump

Maybe it's time to put an OBD2 scanner on it, and stop Guessing !!!

It's been DAYS now ,, why not just have the Dealer FIX it under warranty.

Its one of several "summer" cars for me...... I'm still driving my winter beater right now so its not like I'm stranded.

and there is still alot of snow on the ground and the roads where I live are still covered in road salt, which I try to avoid with my summer toys as much as possible.

If I'm not able to resolve it at home, I'll have the car towed once the weather improves (if I had it towed to the dealer today,..... it'd get sprayed with roadsalt and then the grease monkeys who fix it, would want to road-test (on the salt covered roads)

sorry for being late to the party. some one mention if batteries have a bad cell it wont start the car. I cant start my car also . I tested power to the starter & gets 13.24 ( I believe) when its being jumped. Can that still mean a bad battery, even if its reading a high charge.
