when i put the key into the ignition to start the car..the normal cranking sound comes BUT then just dies and recranks it ,after the engine starts ,all this with the key still turned all the way ....WHAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM?
Have you had your battery checked? Possibly your starter? Spark plugs? Could be numerous things, but I'd head to a mechanic asap so that it doesn't totally die on you somewhere, leaving you stranded and having to get it towed (expensive!).
most likely is your ecu, i work for toyota and this is a commom problem. should be cover for 90k miles call a local dealership and check but i am 99 percent sure thats what it is. i do at least 2 a week for some problem
