    Default Ve v6 over-start

    When I start my car sometimes, it will start but sounds like the starter motor is spinning with the flywheel while the car is started for a slight second. But as soon as I turn it off and on, it will start normally.. My belief is it's the battery, not getting enough Cranking voltage but since it started when I turn it off and on the alternator has produced enough output for a normal Start....
    My battery lasts about 15 minutes with music playing until it can't start. Anyone had this issue??? Doesn't sound healthy...... Cheers

    I had this problem with my VS. The Starter Motor Sprocket that engages the Ring gear was rattly and made a sound like a really rough bearing just after it started for a second or two. Nothing to worry about if its that.

    It annoys me. Doesn't sound good when I start it sometimes but I no it's nothing to be worried about..,. So battery has nothing to do with it?
