when I start my car, it sounds like a dying batter for a second and then the car starts. it's been this way for two days. It runs fine after starting but its a difficult start.

What I would suggest is having both the battery tested and the starter. You could have a weak battery or a starter that is drawing too many amps. If both check out good, make sure the alternator is properly charging the battery.

Most parts stores will do it for free.

Let me know what you find or if you have other questions.
