Long start

Hey,

Today i started a car but it took like 5sec after i turned the key to start.
I drove the car like 30 min before and before that car started normally, well its still longer then in my old car but not 5sec.
Do you guys know what may be wrong? Battery?

sound like you could not be "opening" and "clearing" your 8 once a week

try hitting 9k every few days. should solve the problem
