Is this a problem with my starter or transmission, ignition, or something else?
Recently, my car has been taking a little bit longer to start and I don't know if it's my transmission or my starter. It cranks/“turns over” more than normal before the engine starts. I got the battery replaced so I don't think it would be that. The video below shows the "sound". I plan on going to a mechanic soon. I can only think of it being the starter, transmission, or ignition. Otherwise I dunno what it would be. Sorry if it isn't very loud.

Try spraying some starter fluid into the throttle body and see if it starts right away. If it does it is the check valve in the fuel pump assembly. The fix would be to change the fuel pump or add a check valve into the fuel line.
