Abstract: A vehicle control apparatus includes a lock-up control valve that controls a lock-up piston and a control system. A spool valve stem of the rock-up control valve is configured to move to an engagement position where working fluid is supplied to an apply oil path, a disengagement position where the working fluid is supplied to a release oil path, and the intermediate position. The control system is configured to perform a first starting control in which an engine is cranked in a state where the spool valve stem is held at the intermediate position and the clutch is engaged. The control system is configured to perform, when a start of the engine by the first starting control fails, a second starting control in which the engine is cranked in a state where the spool valve stem is moved to the disengagement position and the clutch is engaged.
