Default car does not crank nomal at times

Ok I have a 2000 WS6, it has been doing this for about a month.sometimes when I cold crank it it will start but real weak, meaning like it's not gettting enough fuel (like real loud) It will also crank same as mentioned but it will shut off right away, then it will crank like normal, also sometimes when I turn the key I get nothing at all, and sometimes the secruity light comes on.I am throwing no codes, I have a brand new red top battery, and this does not hapeen everytime

Check your connections to your red top. Also make sure that in the winter months you keep your gas tank above 1/2 because condensation will build up and then get in your engine, possibly causing this.

Check the cables as well. And make sure the Alternator is good. Nine times out of ten the battery went because it's not getting charged. ie bad alt or cables.
