its kia forte, mechanic said need to call some guy to check ECU/board could be got issue and might need to change, pretty expensive maybe 1-2K sad.gif

Any other thoughts? I told him go ahead to call the guy to check but have to wait till Monday.

It's an old car - 9 years old, service pretty regularly about once a year, dont use much.

anyone face issue with their carwhere while driving, complete loss of power and car just breakdown. Then try to start the car, cannot start.
Had to tow my car and went to mechanic, change new battery still cannot start and he said need to check further, could be alternator and others. Did anyone face this before or know what is the possible failure based on experience?
