Hi All, I am just looking for some help. I just bought a Jetta City 2008. This is a mkiv jetta with a new skin and built later. It has 83k KM or 51k Miles. It is giving me issues starting the car in the morning before work and in the afternoon after work... The car will not start for 10 or more time trying to start it. No noise from starter at all. Maybe a slight hum. After a few minutes of trying it would catch right away and everything starts up perfectly. I can stop the engine and start it right back up without a hitch.
Brief timeline:
9 pm, Parked car at home from the dealer.
2 AM, car would not start. Started after a few minutes of trying. Moved car out of driveway.
9 AM car would not start. Started after a few minutes of trying.
until 11 AM, driving around with stops and starts. No Issues. Dealer also checked it out during this time, changed battery.
2PM Car starts fine. ran for less than 1 minute.
5PM Car Does not start. After a few minutes car starts.
8PM Car starts fine. Short trip for groceries.
11:30 PM car starts fine.
Also my radio is still in Safe mode, I am waiting for the dealer to give me the pin.
2.0L 6 speed auto.
Additionally here are some videos of me trying from this morning...

The car started as I was going to show that the dome lights do not dim when trying to start the car.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance...
