Well recently my car wouldn't start at all, had to bump it, then it worked again, got it checked by an auto electrician at the garage who couldnt find the problem. So last night, i turned the key, nothing, (when i cudnt start before it clicked, not this time), so turned it agen and started, never thought anything of it. So not too long ago today i went to go out, and it took three attempts to start the engine. Anyone know what could be the problem?

are you just getting a clicking noise?if so it's probably your starter motor if your battery is ok.

or is it turning over but just not starting?
