Default 2007 Audi A3 - Cranking Engine Start Sound

Hi,

This is a link to a video i uploaded with me starting the car:


It doesn't sound too bad in the video however sometimes it does crank a little bit harder before starting. It usually happens when the car has been sitting awhile, overnight or after a day at work. I notice no issues or other sounds when I'm driving. The battery was replaced almost 2 years ago and the spark plugs were changed a few months ago. The car has been making that sound since the battery change 2 years ago. Anytime I've brought it into a mechanic there were unable to diagnose or see anything since the engine is warm and doesn't make that sound on startup. Any ideas?

Thanks
