2011 Camaro RS start issue - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hello All,

I have a 2011 Camaro RS with 145,000 miles on her. I'm having an intermittent start issue. Doesn't matter if it is morning, noon or night. The battery was replaced by the dealer November 2022.

Issue is when I attempt to start the car, when I turn the ignition, the car does not start and there is only 1 audible click. I wait a few seconds and try again and the same thing happens. This can occur anywhere from 1 to 4 times then on the next try, the car will start. To note, this does not happen every time I attempt to start the car. Sometimes it will fire up as expected.

When this "no start" happens there is no CEL indicator or Service Stabilitrak LED indicator displayed. Voltage gauge does not indicate an issue either.

Thanks in advance for any and all assistance and guidance.

Found a great shop in the San Antonio area, Bravos Auto Care and they replaced my starter (at a fair price), so issue is resolved.
