Title says sums it up.
Details: After coming home from a restaurant, I park my car in the driveway and continue into the home to rest for an hour before work. The hour passes and I go out to my Corolla and crank it up. It turns on, RPM goes up to 2 before resting to its normal range, then 5 seconds later it slowly dies down and turns off. I have a quarter tank of gas still in the car and it will not try to turn on until it has been idol overnight (as I've tried again in the morning with same results).
In general, it sounds like it wants to start up like normal but doesn't have the energy to keep it on.
Does anyone have a clue what could cause such a random shutoff at 22.5k miles on this Corolla?
This car has been maintained at the right times (ie oil changes, regular checkups every 5k miles, etc) at local Toyota Dealership garage. Inspections were done at a trusted car shop locally also.
