what noise is this?

i was just wondering what this noise is that i hear. it only happens when i just turned on the car in the morning or something or if its cold but as soon as i start driving i can hear this kinda air relive valve go off its not loud or anything it just sounds like some type of air being released and im just curious to what it is.

Maybe you should fart with the windows down next time. You wont get brain lapse if you do this.

sounds like he's describing a typical coldstart morning drive.

to me it's like this additonal whine, the car sounds like it's wheezing or something and feels real sluggish.

oh yeah, my abs does that too. sounds like a little buzzing sound right as you start moving forward for the 1st time.

of course, sometimes my abs fails and doesnt even do that
