Hard starting problem!!
Sorry if this is a repost. When I try to start my car, the starter barely turns over the engine to get it to start. So when I turn the key, the starter cranks but it sounds like it is having a hard time, then it finally starts. My dad says it might be my battery or if not my belt is loose for the alternator, and is not charging the battery as well as it should be while it is running. What do you guys think it is?
Battery?
loose belt for the alternator?
alternator going bad?
or my starter is starting to weaken?
Thanks for your time.

I just checked the battery and the alternator and see if it was charging at 14-15V and it was, but i heard clicking noises from teh alternator area, very soft and you have to put your ear to it or near it to hear it. How hard is it to take out the alternator? Also it isn't all the time, it is only once in awhile thing.
