Noise under the hood when cold starting
I have a 2007 Touring 6-sp manual and a few times when I've started the car on chilly mornings (I've only had the car since last Thursday night) there is a rather loud "choing" or "chung" sound from under the hood as soon as I start to move forward in 1st gear. It only happens once and I notice no loss of power or any other symptoms. I don't "feel" anything either. I don't think it happens when the car is warm. Any clues as to what this might be? I did search this forum but didn't find any posts that described the sound I'm hearing.

^ Most likely the shroud covering the front rotor. This too is normal, and you'll mostly feel it (once) during sharp speedy turns.
Again, nothing to worry aboot
