Friend of mine has an '03 XE, 3.3l, 90K +/-, I believe it's an auto, 2wd. Drove to the store Sun. and shut it off. Came back out and only got a "click". Battery good, cables good, starter good, selenoid is clicking and all fuses 100%.
Towed to a "mechanic" who claims the engine is seized (locked up were his words) because he can't turn it by hand. I'm thinking he's trying to turn it by the flywheel. I haven't seen the truck since this issue started, but it's always been maintained. Has never overheated.
Is it possible to drop the timing belt at shutdown and stop in such a manner as to prevent the engine from turning?
Any thoughts?

ThanX...
Jeff!
