Haven't driven it since. So the starter just clicks now when I start it. Problem started when it overheated.

Hi!
I really recommend the relay mod to the starter as mentioned in this forum ,-fitted it myself to my car-what a difference!!- basically there are not enough amps going through the small wire to kick in the solenoid , so it just clicks and clicks and clicks .
