I've Gone thru 3 starters since Apr of 04 (less than 20k miles between all failures), last starter replaced first week of Jan 06 - 4th having problems after less than a month. When turning ignition on, starter solenoid clicks for four or five trys then goes ahead and starts. Have tried to determine if there's a voltage problem - when last starter was installed everything checked good. Anyone had similar problems and if so, how solved? Open to all suggestions.:banghead:

Check you battery cables. I've seen vehicles with corroded cables do exactly as you have described.
