First off, DO NOT crank it for that long. When mine gets hard to start I just do short bursts on the starter, a second or two at a time with a slight pause between. It will usually hit on the second attempt, if not always on the third. There were several flashes to fix the long crank issue. You may not have the latest revision which from all accounts works. If the flash doesn't fix it or you have the latest then the problem will most likely be injector related. Are you still under warranty? If so let the dealer fix it. If they have to do injectors the latest revision of injector is better than the original. Good luck and let us know what you find.

my '04 has a mind of its own as far as starting is concerned... sometimes it hits instantly, sometimes it's extended
