I've been having occasional issues with starting up my 2005 Tundra where the starter cranks for several seconds and holds the key in the start position while it's doing that. I have to manually turn the key back off and try the startup again, which typically works on the second attempt. I found this FAQ this morning:
Toyota Tundra FAQ
(Search on "Subject: 4.8 - Tundra Not Starting")
It says this is normal because the onboard computer takes a few extra seconds to run startup diagnostics, but I find that hard to believe. Is it really normal for a vehicle to not want to start?
Has anyone else had this same issue? Is there something that I should do to resolve it before taking it into the dealer?
