Replaced the battery (Interstate MTP-48/H6) in our 2017 Buick Enclave (117k miles) a few weeks ago.
A few days later she said it wouldnt start. I went outside and it started right up for me.
Fast forward to this last Thursday and it wouldnt start again for her. I tried starting it and it was a no go and it had a single click sound but all the dash / interiors lights looked good. Check the terminals and shut off the radio and fan and it started.
Drove it last night to a party. Went to leave and it wouldnt start. Got a jump and drove home. Car started right up this morning.
Got the volt meter out this morning and here are the readings:
Not started: 12.52
Running: 14.8
Turned off: 12.25
Went back to 12.52 after a few minutes off.
Does this sound like a starter going bad?
