2000 INTREPID...clicks

I had something like this happen with my 99 Intrepid. Ended up the starter
needed replacing. What threw me at first was the loud sound the car would
make sometimes after starting. Turns out the starter gears would not retract
after starting and spun the starter. Turn the car off and it would "click"
when trying to restart it. After trying several times, the solenoid would
engage and start the car. No froze engine, but the wife explained the noise
kinda like a loud click or grinding sound. Just a thought.

2.7 liter engine? They can fail catastrophically and won't throw a
code. Failure is usually caused by oil starvation, due to sludge
building up inside the engine. And it's EXPENSIVE.

Cool. Maybe now you can devote some time to learning about punctuation,
capitalization, spelling, proper sentence structure, and (most
importantly) how to properly use a newsreader program. Hint: trim your
posts, and don't top-post...

A "normal leak"? WTF is that?

You didn't think to check that stuff before you purchased the vehicle?
