Re: starter motor problem

Can they test the battery while the car is running as if I turn it off it probably wouldn't start again :(

Re: starter motor problem

I have had the car for 3 years and not changed the battery but whats puzzling me is it starts from cold but if I have done a journey and it's warm if I turn it off and try to turn it back on it just does one click and thats it but leave it for a few hours and it will start again
