I am going to guess it could be the belt wearing out. I would spray the belt with silicone or belt dressing and see what happens. When starters were out, they don't make that kind of noise....usually you have to crank 3-4 times before engine starts...that's a sign starter or battery is going out. You can check the condition of the belt by removing the heat shield cover behind your seats....it's quite easy (abt 8 screws) but the cover edges are sharp. If you see some tiny line cracks in the belt, it's time to replace.
