You may want to check the immobilizer light on the dash when it gives you starting problems. If the green indicator is flashing it may be a problem with your key.
Mine has been slowly getting worse about starting. At first it was just once every other month, then once every few weeks, recently about once or twice a week it won't start. And every time I have the problem the immobilizer light is flashing. I turn the key off and try again, immobilizer goes out, and starts fine.
I wonder if the chip in the key can get flaky? I keep thinking I should swap keys (use my second set) to test that theory but somehow I never think of it when I pull into the garage, only when I'm leaving.
