It's happened about 4 times in the past month. It's usually on a cold start.
I press start and the car loses all power, can't open the trunk even, the brake pedal goes stiff just nothing. There's no CELs on, it resets the A/B mileage also. Idk if it could be a relay or starter motor. It's got 135k miles. I was thinking the starter relay is going not sure. I'm also getting some extra grinding/whining during cold morning starts, it was louder last winter and I assumed it was from being low on oil all the time.
It comes back on by itself after a min or only after I open the hood then I hear all the gadgets turning on.
