Last couple of days I noticed when I turn the key the car doesnt start right away, meaning the engine turns over like 7-8 times before it fires up. Today it even hesitated a little (kinda like it choked) after it fired up. Could this be bad gas ? I know my air filter is quite dirty and needs replacing soon. Now this never happens but in the morning when its coldest, any other time of the day I tried, it just started right up.

 

MAF. Mine was changed under warranty, so take advantage if you still have some left...

 

It could also be the Starter.
