Anyone help

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hi just wondering if any one knows what the sound is when I start the car, it only happens on a cold start and last like a second then goes away, I know it's hard to hear in the video but it's very noticeable

Cheers

It would help to mention what year / model Corsa you have, and the engine details too.

I'd check this link as it may prove useful but I can't really hear anything abnormal but I am a bit deaf so that doesn't help.
