The starter motor is sticking. Car only starts now and then but jumps straight away

Do you mean that the car starts first time on a jump (booster battery) and that it struggles on its own??

Sounds like a battery/charging issue!

Just change it because it's not going to fix itself.

If it's sticking it'll fail eventually.

Yes. I think its sticking. Battery dont turn over. I run it earlier for half hour. Tturned it off. Tried starting it and it wouldnt start. Is that defo the starter motor. Also i think i got a power steering problem ffs. When i just moved the car there was none. any ideas. Cars stressing me out now

power steering goes when you don't have enough amps

Since i changed battery i aint had a prob. So hopefully its resolved the power steering problem also
