I have a 2000 EX, auto, with a stock motor with 124k on it and after returning from a week long vacation, my car didn't want to turn over. Its hard to describe the sound it made, but it would crank and just couldn't turn over. I eventually hit the gas while cranking it, and I got it to start, it ran rough at first, but I took it for a trip around the block after idling in the garage for a few and it seemed okay. I did notice some coolant (like a few drops, nothing big) leaked out while I had the car running in the garage, which I've never noticed before. I started it a couple more times yesterday and it was normal. I just started it this morning and it was running a bit rough at idle, but turned over right away.
I had most of the ignition system replaced last year, so I don't think that could be the problem. Up until yesterday, I didn't really have any issues with starting.
I am just wondering if there are some areas that could cause this problem. I need to replace my tires and brakes, so if I possibly have some lurking major issue, I might just get rid of it. I had the timing belt, tensioner, drive belts, and valve cover gasket replaced about 5-6 months ago. If I didn't have a 100 mile commute everyday, I wouldn't be so concerned about it.
Thanks for your input.
