Hi

I have a 2005 Camry altise ltd done 85,000km 2.4l. In the last week, I have been having trouble starting the car after it has been running a while. It seems to be harder the longer I have just driven. Takes about 3-5secs to ignite which doesn't seem long but before this it would start first thing all the time. Once ignited the car appears to be running smoothly and no engine warning lights are coming on.

Cold start is fine, it starts straight away.

Any thoughts on what could be causing this?

Regards

Go to your mechanic and check your battery, it could be a weak battery.

Havent heard or come accross this problem yet..

Could be a few things, battery, starter motor, fuel line, spark plug etc.....

Have you also tried starting it up in "Neutral"?

I know some of the Gen 5's have had issues with the alternator frying around about the 100K mark...

Best thing to do is take it to a mechanic and get it checked :)

Yeah, I have it booked in, just wondering what I might be up for over the long weekend in Adelaide.

Cheers
