6.2L Startup "Grumble"
Hi all,
I have a 2011 Platinum with 7500 miles on the clock...6.2L. When I start the engine and am standing outside to hear whats up, the tone of the engine changes a few times (switching components pumps etc on I suppose). There is one point about 3-4 seconds after the engine has started and has been running that sounds like a deep rumble...like something major is happening and the engine is working to get this process started. Almost sounds like a very cold oil pump working, but its not cold enough for that. Few seconds later everythign planes off nicely and settles into a smooth idle.
Does this sound bizarre? Am I overanalyzing this?
Everything has been absolutely stellar with this rig, this is my only questions so far.
Thanks for your replys!
