So, I started my car a couple weeks ago (remote start) and the car started with a delay kind of start. Not real sure what to call it, it was like a start for half a second, pause, and then full start. Wasn't real sure what to think of it so I figured it was just cause of the cold start. Well today I started it again (remote start) after not being started for about 10 hours and same thing happened. Started, paused for a brief second and then full started. No lights have came on or anything, im not sure if its because of the cold temperatures (40-50) or its just cause of cold start. I am still under warranty but since there is no light coming on will GM charge me if I have them take a look? Please if anyone has any idea or experienced this before, please let me know.

Possibly a battery starting to go bad?

If it starts ok with the key then I wouldn't worry about it. If you still have the original battery, you are on borrowed time.
