My wife's '07 Sequoia with about 140,000 miles on it won't start from time to time.
Turn the ignition to start and it "click, click, click"s. And if I try it a couple of more times it slows down like it's killing the battery.

I've -
- cleaned the batter terminals and connections
- checked the starter relay (it's good)
