Starter motor - Clicking noise - Fixed

[Foxspeed]

Don't what I was doing before.... I'm getting 11.89v roundabouts, so I'm right in saying new battery time? Like @Sheldon88 suggested

not great that and when it tries to crank will be below 9volts... so yeh on that its battery time! is there a date stamp on it like a week/year ie 12/2010?

Yep I would say so (it's actually a bit higher than I thought it would be).

I'll have a look once I've removed it, any recommendations for a particular battery? Does it need to be a certain capacity / CCA rating?

Should be a bosch S4005 or S4004 depending on height of the batt 60ah 540a. 11.8v tends to be a bad battery from experience

New battery, then check what it’s charging at to make sure the alternator isn’t goosed.

Cheers mate, just looking at Bosch batteries now

Update: Bosch S4 005 battery fitted, turned the key and it fired up first time

Measured the voltage whilst running and I was getting 14.59v roundabouts. So multiple clicks on startup = new battery

Thanks for all your help guys, much appreciated as always
