When I go to start my car nothing happens. You just hear a click then nothing. I have to pull the key out and try again. Sometimes takes up to 6 tries before the engine fires up as normal. Apart from that everything else is running ok on the car.

Make sure the battery is in good condition. Also, make sure that all terminals are clean and tight. If everything looks good, have the starter bench tested. It may be going bad.
