2002 Camry V6 takes several seconds to start

[2002Camry]

I have a 2002 Camry LE V6 (made in Japan) with 195,000 KM on it and noticed that the car would crank for several seconds before it catches and starts. I have replaced the air filter, changed the spark plugs at 190K, use premium fuel and this is still happening. I have not replaced the spark plug wires as I was told at the time that it was not necessary. I notice that this seems to happen when my car is in the garage at temps above 0 degrees Celsius. When my vehicle is parked outside in a cold winter day, it seems to start quicker.

Any idea what i need to look into?

It could be the battery, did you try testing it yet or measuring the voltage etc.

That's what happened to mine, like it sounded weak to turn over and then I replaced the battery and everything was good again.

Cking,

Battery was tested fine and the cranking sounds strong and normal. It just takes a few seconds before it starts.

I have never had my fuel injectors professionally cleaned and just used injector cleaner and premium shell gas (premium is recommended for 1mz-fe V6 engines). Would a fuel system cleaning work and if so, what is the best one out there?
