One of our 2003 cars (with over 940,000 km) shows a deep voltage drop while cranking (at -6 degrees C.)... I plugged in one of those cigarette-lighter socket voltage readers, and it goes down to around 8 volts while cranking... I've swapped batteries with the other cars, including a just-about-new (Costco) battery, and the other cars only go down to 10.x volts while cranking... does this mean that the starter in this car is drawing too much power?
