In the last couple of days I just hear a "click" when I turn the ignition key. When I repeat the start attempt a couple more times it starts perfectly. I can then start it say on 6 more occasions before the problem reoccurs. The battery is only 12 months old and all other electricals work perfectly. I would be very grateful for some advice on this issue. Regards, John.
