Problem Diagnosis..

This week my 2003 camry v6 wasn't starting properly. The car would make this struggling noise every time i tried to start my car. It seems like it was having trouble starting.

Does anyone have any idea of what this is?

Thanks.

What is your definition of struggling noise? Engine turns over slow? Engine turns over normally but won't start? Engine turns over normally, catches or fires from time to time but won't stay running? Engine starts but pops and bangs when running? Starter makes noise when trying to turn engine over?

Some clarification would help.

N.E.O.

Yeah.... the engine turns over slow. It takes about 1-2 seconds more than normal. But after it turns over, it functions normally.

If it is turning over slow you probably should have your battery check. The battery may be on its last leg.
