Rough start up

I have an 07' S65... when starting the car with the starter button. The car does not have a strong start up although it starts every time. Is this common with these cars or do I have something bigger to worry about?

Has it started cranking more slowly? If so replace the starter battery.

Yes, it has started cranking more slowly.... I'm taking her to the local indy shop but just wanted to know if anyone else has experienced the same problem.

I replaced my starter battery on 3/16/2013 at 55,253 miles. Prior owner replaced it on 6/10/2009 at 14,590 miles. I noticed it was cranking more slowly and after replacing it would fire immediately. I have over 114K miles now and I think it might be time to replace again soon.

Thanks Randy.... I had the starter replaced a week ago and that solved the problem. Very surprising to me; the car only has 35,xxx.
