thats weird but at my work i drive alot of different cars (i detail them) when a battery is dead or low it clicks but it usualy wont start unless you jump it. i would take the battery to kragens they will check it for free.

Possibly signs that your starter is going out. I know when my starter on my DA was going out it was clicking sometimes before it would fire.
