I've noticed that whenever I start my car, I hear a spinning, whining noise coming from underneath the hood, near the engine. It almost sounds like something spinning really fast but I've never heard this on any other car.
I recorded the noise via iPhone and you guys can see it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nR6uaQ426jA

Does anyone know what this sound is???

I get the same noise occasionally.. I'm sure it has something to do with the weather. some days its really bad (like in your video) and other days its barely there.

i find as you drive the car, the sound does go away..

Yah same here. Getting it looked at anyway for my 96k service next week. I'll let you guys know if it's anything to be concerned about but I'm sure it's fine :)

Try shooting that vid again with the hood open. Also, try to locate the area of the sound while filming.
