it doesn't start instantly anymore, takes a second or two of cranking. Thedealer offered a 90000 mile service which he called a tuneup for $899. Butsaid it was probably my fuel filter causing the prob which he would gladlychange for $180 or so...any thoughts?

Top post...... A little schooling for ya.....Why could it be my fuel pressure regulator? Well thats a good question. Your fuel pressure regulator does what? RIGHT regulates your fuel pressure. Even though it might have enough to stay started it might not have enough pressure to start at first.....But when i turn on my key for a couple of seconds and then try to start it its starts right up....Sure because because when your key is on (and the car is not running) it allows your regulator to build up the pressure it needs to start the car.....Labor rates vary from place to place but to me sounds like your getting a good deal.
