My car starts normally but if once it is turned off then it does not start for 40-50 seconds.
Engine cranks but the car does not start.
After 40 seconds it again starts normally.
My car does not start immediately again after turning off.

Hi,

By chance is the check engine light staying on when the engine is running? If so, start by scanning the computer to see if there are diagnostic trouble codes that will point us in the right direction.


Here is a link that explains how to test for all codes:

If you don't have a scan tool, most parts stores will do this free of charge.

Next, when it doesn't start, does it even give an indication that it is nearly starting or does the starter motor just crank normally?

Let me know.
