I've had the car for about 5 months. I've done tune up on it, as well as regular oil change. All my fluids are are at the right level. A few days ago I attempted to start it but, it will not. I checked the battery at a local auto store and was informed that it bad/dead. I've purchased a new battery and installed it. Still the car wont start. Power is available. The radio and lights are able come on. You have any clue what the issue may be may be?

Check for a stuck EGR, then test fuel pump pressure, If it won't restart, determine what's missing, the engine needs three things to run, Spark at all plugs, gas to all cylinders, and compression in all cylinders, tho an engine may run lacking one in one cylinder, it won't run very well!
