I thought it was the battery, so I put in a new one but have the same problem. The symptoms are just like a dead battery, and have been getting progressively worse over the past few start ups.
I read the thread about starters, slow starter speed etc. Hoping this is the problem after all. Will knocking the starter with a sharp blow help, if not just to diagnose the problem?
I was going to chime in with the similar post below to keep things uncluttered, but didn't want to hijack the thread.
It has been running fine otherwise.
