Okay looks like its 50/50 here on the forum (sounds like the Texans season record ).

Anyone know why it does this? Anyone ask their friendly neighborhood service advisor?

I tried the seat belt trick; buckle up before starting the car and I did NOT get the noise....I never buckle up right away because I am backing out of my garage.....I'll keep trying this method...
