[Shotimes] Buzzing/grinding on startup

[Ron DeReus]

Kind of sounds like a fart?  Mine has done this every morning, and most
lunch hours, since it got really cold here in Iowa.  Was thinking it might
be belts slipping at first start or something, or the power steering pump,
which I suspect of other noises at idle when fully warmed up, too.
Stethoscope tests have been inconclusive.

This sounds like the supposedly harmless noise made by the power steering
valve (of some kind.)  I have never experienced this because it is warm
enough here for all the fat chicks to wear bikinis in January.  :-)
