The second it gets cold or even chilly outside, I go to start my car and it just clicks, some times it fires some times it doesn't. I put a rebuilt alternator, and a new battery in it 2 months ago maybe a little longer. Its a 300 m by the way. I'm stumped, help me!

Go to the remote jump post and make sure that the connections are tight. Same with power distribution center. Then check the starter relay in pdc for corrosion. If that doesn 'thelp make sure battery terminals are clean and if it does it with a helper around, hit the body of the starter with ahammer and if car turns over your starter may have a flat spot in the armature.
