So sometimes when i start it up it seems like it turns and pauses, and then starts then going all the way through...does this mean the battery is going out? Or something else?

 

YES! I just had that problem..... Go to Walmart and look for Size 48 875 cranking amps 700 cold cranking amps battery for $77.00 you get 3 year warranty.

Everything else is working in the car but when you crank it, it cranks but not enough voltage to start the engine. I just replaced mine a couple of days ago...

It usually happens when you turn off the car numerous times in a small amount of time such as errands.... stop here stop there..

When you crank it does the needle (battery/alternator) on you gauge go from 12 to 10 sometimes below 10?

 

Exactly, mine currently still cranks but it pauses for about 1 second or 2 and then starts...
