I'd start with a new mechanic, sounds like they're guessing with your money. Doesn't say a lot for their diagnostic skills. It's always good to mention the miles when posting since it can help eleminate some things and point to others. You could have a bad alternator from what you've told us--did your mechanic mention if it was charging? That should have been the first thing they checked instead of just slapping a new battery in. Could also be a bad battery cable or a connnection somewhere along the line. Sometimes an ignition switch can go bad. Beyond that it's a little hard to say without more info. If you're thinking of trying to fix it yourself we can tell you how to check some of this stuff yourself.
