Sometimes when I start my car recently, I can kinda hear a clickgin as I'm starting. Sort of the same click you hear when you try to start a car but it won;t start. I hear that click but the car still starts. I'll hear the click and the engine turn over. Normally the click is inaudible. Anyone know if it's a problem?

Is it a single click, or clicking the whole time you're crarking it?

 

normally a few 2-4 clicks prolly. Goes inline with each turnover of the ignition i think. But before the click was never audible.

Hmm.. maybe your starter is jumping teeth or the solenoid that holds it in place is bad... If you're worried about your car starting every morning, I'd take the starter motor off and have a peek (or let the dealer do it).

IANAM, YMMV.

anyone know if that crud is under the extended warranty ha

 

Extended warrantly generally covers all things that are mechanicle OEM parts. Get it out and read the fine print to get a better idea. That information would be good to know anyways.

 

eh i read it earlier but it says all non cable parts or something like that
