I have a 2006 honda civic. I have been have a reoccuring issue for a
while now and just cannot figure it out. The issue is most of the time
when I try to turn my car over (not everytime) it wont start, sometimes
it makes a sound sometimes it doesnt. The dashboard and radio flicker
while I try to start it and it will turn on at some point if I fuss with
it. A month ago i had my car diagnosed and was told that the
alternator was not charging. So I replaced the alternator and then found
out due to the alternator being bad so was the battery, so I replaced
that. Now after both were replaced the car still did the same thing but
after 2 days all the issues went away. Now its been a week since then
and today it started again... not only did it do the flickering and not
wanting to turn over, it also will show my battery dying indicator light
and the battery starts to die if I am stopped for too long. Has anyone
had the same issue? Please let me know.

Make sure your battery connections are clean and tight. Next time it doesn't want to (assuming) crank. Check for 12 volts on both the starter trigger and battery cable wires while someone is attempting to crank the engine. If that is good, take your volt meter and touch the case of the starter with your positive lead while your neg lead is connected to battery negative. It should be less than 0.5 volts while attempting to crank the engine. Let us know what you find out.
Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.

Is this a manually adjusted belt for alternator? Either way is it tight enough? Not all make noise if slipping,
