SL55 whine on start up
Does anyone know what the whining sound is when you start up the car, especially when it is cold? It sounds kinda like a belt whine but not so high pitched. It goes away when it warms up, but every now and then I hear it when I gas it.
Also, is there a wastegate/pressure release valve that releases when starting to move slowly?
This is a new to me 05 SL55 w/ 53,xxxK miles.

Thanks. I kinda figured it was. It's always nice to hear it from someone else.
