PT Cruiser Limited

  • Automatic transmission
  • 100,000 miles

At times, the car doesn't want to start. When I am sitting at a red light, it begins to act like it wants to die. There are times, that I have noticed, when the dash lights are on, that they will fade as if I am losing energy. Have also noticed an odor. The car sounds HORRIBLE when it starts now. There is like a puttering noise coming out from the hood.
