Almost 2 years ago, my car start to start slowly. It turns over just fine, but it won't catch or "start" until the 3rd or 4th turn of the key. It ALWAYS starts, it just takes awhile. I have taken it to a few places but no one can tell me what is wrong with it. I replaced the spark plugs, but that didn't help. What do you think? Also, on average, how much would it cost me to fix in the Midwest?

Thanks!

Check the fuel pressure and test the coolant temperature sensor and clean out the idle air control valve and and also clean the MAF sensor with an approved cleaner all htese checks out could be coming from the ignition switch.
