That is classic cam sensor behaviour, i had the exact same thing happen to me.
Always go for genuine, the copy ones don't last....

Nope. OP`s other post says it`s only the initial start of the day, once started it will start 1st time all day until left overnight

If cam sensor is making trouble, car should not rev over 4.500rpm, and engine should start normaly if it's cold.
