Problems to start engine!!!!!!

Time to time, few times in month it wont start, only "klick" sound. Any idea? It takes few minutes to wait and it starts. Sometimes it takes more time, sometime less. Vag-com did not help to find problem. It was almost 6 months without problems but now last 2 month, problems.

I dont think so.

It must be something else, because i have heard what kind of sound is when starter is broken.

5 bux says its a burned spot on the cummulator.

the "click" is the starter solenoid.

It could be a corroded +12V cable connection near the starter.

It is on the passenger's side frame, behind the wheel.
