Vehicle: 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe, 2.4L automatic.
In the past 2 weeks there have been occasions (4 times out of 30) where the car started weakly.
I would describe a normal start as: I turn the key to ignition and hear er voom, started.
On a weak start I hear: er er er er voom, started. Where the er er sounds are much gentler as if less force is applied.Wondering what are the common causes?
Battery is 3 months old (I can get it tested if needed).
There doesn’t seem to be a Mass Airflow Sensor on this car, only a MAP. Not sure how to get to it or if it’s even relevant.

check your battery connections are clean and tight. Also check that the starter
connections are clean and tight. When the car starts slower you will need to take
a voltage reading at the battery and the starter.https://www.ericthecarguy.com/faq/solving-automotive-electrical-problems
