The problem is probably pretty obvious but I wanted to make sure..................When I start the car there is a bit of delay and a feeling that the starter motor is struggling to turn over. Sometimes I turn the key and the starter motor will turn over then pause then it kicks into life again and the car then starts up.
Am I on to it by thinking the starter motor needs to be seen to or should I be looking at other things under the bonnet?
I would appreciate any suggestions. Thank you.
check all battery terminals and wiring to the starter
poor connections will drop the power to the starter and make it struggle
if it all checks out then time to look at the stater motor and solenoid
