My Car Wont start

It's been 2 days since i drove my beloved Maxima.. today i had to go pick up my little brother and i tried to start the car, at first it started then it died.. then i continued to try and pursued it to start by twisting my key, but my car would just shake and make whirring sounds..

i think its my starter since 95 maxima's starters are prone to failing.. i have 106.5k miles...

what do u guys think the problem is?

Clean your throttle body. Check Your battery. If it still struggles, consider replacing the starter.
