Have a 2003 Toledo 1.9SE, lately the first time of starting up the starter motor is very slow and barely turns the engine over but does start. Subsequent starting is perfectly OK. Battery is still original as are all the electrics.
Recent service did not highlight any probs at all even after computer hitch up.
Wondering if this is a battery that needs changing or if the ir is an earthing fault or resistance build up overnight.
Other consideration is alternator zener diode allowing leak off from the battery but I would have thought this would have been picked up by the computer in service.
Any thoughts ?
