Been having a wierd issue every once in a while when I try to start the car. Most of the time it cranks just fine but sometimes, for no apparant reason, it won't start. Not a battery issue, because when I turn the key the lights inside come on and the radio and everything works wonderful. But the car doesn't turn over, no noise is made at all. Usually when I try it a few times it cranks. And sometimes just holding the key int he star position for a while it eventually turns over. Scares the crap out of me every time, not a good feeling when your car doesn't start...

Thats a stater problem for sure. If it were the alarm system or the chip in the key you wouldn't even get a click. Best to replace it before it leaves you stranded.

Not getting a click, no sound at all. Sure it's the starter?
