Trun the key & the starter engages for about 1 second. That's not normal.
On the second try the starter stays engaged till the engine starts. That's normal.
What is the cause of the short engagement on the 1st try?

Sounds like a starter bendix failure in the making.

Sounds like the starter gear is not engaging the flywheel as it may not be shimmed properly, or the starter solenoid is bad, First check for a full charge and go from there. ------------------
