07 Starting Issues - Toyota Yaris Forums

A clicking noise sounds like the starter. My wifes previous sentra had a similar experience before we replaced it. Sometimes it would click, click, start, other times click, click, no noise. After replacing it, and the nissan sentra starter is in the worst bloody possible places, no worries until it was totaled.

This is why I love the Yaris. The starter is right in the front with plenty of room to get at it! If you have someone to help listen, pop the hood and start the car to hear where the clicking is coming from. If all other electrical's are good, could be this is where the slow engine turn over is coming from.
