Car has been having trouble starting.
So I've been having this random problem where my car would make a clicking sound sometimes when I turn the key to try to start my car. Sometimes my car would start up fine on the first try, but when it doesn't start I would have to keep trying 2-5 times until it finally starts.
I'm thinking it might be be the starter going out, but I'd figure I'd ask you guys in case it might be something else. Thanks in advanced.

OK, the post is good, but a little vague.
Do you hear the starter engage when you try to start it or just a click?

Ahh, when I turn the key I would only hear a 'click' if I do not hear the starter motor engage.

3,000 rpm - starting to feel the power
Loose battery connection maybe. Next time you hear this click leave key in that postion and see if things like your radio/ac still work.

Well, my battery is pretty new, maybe bout a year or so old. My stereo and stuff will turn on after the click so im pretty sure my battery is ok.

Check your grounds... I was having the same problem and it was a loose ground. I did continue to have a similar problem that I figured out to be bad alarm wiring

Hmmmm you might be onto something here. So check around for a loose ground. I do have a aftermarket alarm system installed by the PO. Hmmm Thanks! I'll have to check around... this part sucks!
