Hello, Do you know if the new battery is fully charged? Sometimes new batteries are only given a quick charge, which may not be enough to start an engine. Is there any sign of power when you turn the ignition key? Another thing to check is the actual contact on the battery poles. I've seen a case where the inside of the post connector was not clean and prevented a strong enough connection to allow the starter to work.

New Battery/starter and still wont crank.

car wont crank or car wont start? I would say your battery cables are bad,, acid gets in from battery and erodes internal cable parts... need a Meter to check it out.. put the meter on battery while someone tries to start it, if the voltage drops from 13.5 to 10 then it is trying to turn over, I always have the new starters tester before I leave a store, they are remanufactured in Malaysa and they use old parts in most of them..

I own a kia rio 2011 model, had starting problems in novmeber, so I got a brand new battery, now a month and half later, my car wont start again

It is possible that your new battery has gone bad. The other option for having a dead battery is a draw on the battery by some system not going to sleep

Car wont start and i have a new battery

have the battery load tested as brand new batteries can be faulty. Check that the terminals on the battery are shiny clean and tight. Check battery leads are in good condition and not corroded away and check the earth wire is fixed and in good condition.

New starter new battery still wont start last

Very likely the new battery is defective - it happens. If you have a know good new battery, then also connect a jumper from the battery negative to the block just to be sure its not a defective or loose ground cable.
