ah Fab thanks! Will have a read through :-)

Hi, I was hoping someone could offer some assistance with a problem I'm having. When I attempt to start my RX300 I have to hold the key down fairly long and it 'sounds' like the starter is having a few problems. I went to have it checked out, and the mechanic told me to start the car in front of him (bear in mind I'd driven there and it'd only been off for a few moments) it started pretty much ok in front of him and he said there was no issues with it... I told him that I'd wait 10 minutes and show him after it's cooled down - which I did and it did make some noise and he still said there was no issue with it. The question is, has anyone else come across any similar issue? Am I barking up the wrong tree thinking it's a starter issue? The car has done 73k. Any advice / hints? Thanks
