    ok i know this is a shot in the dark and very hard for anyone to diagnose without hearing or seeing the vehicle.but who knows,maybe one of you guys have run into this exact issue.the noise is very regular,happens everytime,exact same time.whenever you start the car and put in gear(which it does pretty smooth)within about 10 feet of pulling off or backing up,you get a quick scraping sound like a piece of metal rubbing the road,then it is gone and you dont hear it anymore.only when you start the car and pull off do you hear it briefly.

    abs motor engaging? drag your foot on the brake on that first start and first drive. i drag my brake to the edge of the driveway, let off and it sounds like a fart. and then off i go. so if you drag it and it does it when u let off, im sure it's the abs motor.

    im pretty sure thats the sound. not so much metal scraping.. but everyone has their own perception.

    EDIT: basically. it only does the motor test once you release the brake for a certain period of time on that first startup. i know it was a bit confusing there

    Is it your air intake? My makes a kinda "scraping a shovel on the ground" sound when it runs. Its just sucking in air.

    so that's 3 people under the same screen name. odd.

    so did you narrow down your noise? perhaps take a video?
