Mike,
thanks. The battery connections are good and tight. However I have a
problem to locate the starter.
It is not accessible from above.
Do you think I could replace the starter myself? I don't have much
experience with fixing cars, but know how to handle a wrench :-).
I think that's all what you need to replace the starter, right?

I might need jacks to get under the car since the starter seems to be
located somewhere near the oil filter.

Chris
