my car doesnt even have 9,000 miles on it. today when i went to start it up it didnt sound right.....this has happened before too, but its doing it alot more now. it starts up right away but at first it sounds like it doesnt want to click over. has anybody else had this problem?

Does it not crank over? whats the theft light doing when this occurs.
Oh and replace the IMG in the [IMG] with lowercase image.

Does it crank longer n then fire up, need more detail, it wouldnt hurt to check your fuel filter

Try turning the key to "on" for 10-15 seconds before turning it to "start".

This allows the fuel pump to get up to pressure when starting a cold engine.

The pressure should hold to help for this problem when the key is turned off. A problem that could cause this is a leaking injector or pressure lost through the pump.
