engine turns over for 10 seconds before starting

As previously mentioned. When I hold the brake and press start, the car will continuously turn over, but won't start until 5-10 seconds later. The alternator was checked and fine, and the battery was ok but a little low on volts. I purchased a brand new battery and that seemed the fix the problem..... for an hour. New battery has the correct voltage, and alternator checked out fine again. Nissan themselves don't know what going on. It seems no one else has had this problem on here, but I'm also the first to bring up issues for the coupe.
