thanks for the help Y33TREKker,
Today, I took it to the mechanic and he told me that it could be the started. He is 75% sure ,but he mention that may be an electronic or computer problem,too. He will change the started with started included for 350$. Hope it is the cause of the problem. The other thing is that today and yesterday , i did't have a problem at all starting.However, a few days later i had to try 12 times before i could start the car.

I will ask him tomorrow about the modes selector tomorrow. I haven't noticed any flaking acting from the transmit ion lights.

The mechanic told me today that the transmission may be slipping ,and that he mention that maybe a transmition job of 3000 dollars may be involved , but he just told me that basically based on what i told him about my problem....

...I wish I knew a mechanic that has dealt with a vehicross before. Maybe somebody in New Jersey want to give me a tip about a good mechanic who knows more about the vx than my current mechanic...

thanks again for the input and your time Y33TREKker,

For the second I'd wonder about the mode selector switch on the drivers side of the transmission. They've been known to start causing problems after awhile because of their proximity to the drivers' side exhaust. Have you ever noticed whether the dash lights that tell you what gear your transmission is in have acted flaky from time to time? The mode selector switches can get corroded and start causing crossed connections resulting in transmission malfunctions.

As far as the noise, easiest to just have the VX put up on a lift and have a look for anything out of the ordinary.

Hope it's something simple.
