Volvo Starter grabs intermitently. 850

Whenever I leave my car sit for more than 8 hours the starter needs to be "joged" to engage. What I mean is I have to turn the key to start then back it off then it will turn the motor on the second try. Sometimes it starts right on the second try and sometimes it takes 10 or 15 try's. I can hear the starter engage and spin but it is not "biting" the gear on the motor until it's "joged"
Anyone heard of this? What might the solution be?

Also The starter and solenoid have been replaced. This still happens.
