If it were simply the battery, seems like a jump should have worked.
Thanks!

3. Ignition switch. I replaced my battery and starter, turned out my problem was the ignition switch. :/
1. I plan to do that when I come back home for Thanksgiving.

2. I've done it from the top on my non-M. I guess the intake will be coming off.

3. I was able to clutch/roll start the car. Would I still have been able to do this with an ignition switch failure?
