My vehicle's engine makes a honking, vibrating sound when it is started. Almost sound like someone is blowing through a kazoo..This usually only happens when the vehicle is started from a cold start. After it has warmed up, it does not make the sound when I start it. The sound lasts for about a second. Any help is much appreciated...Thanks...

Check for vacuum leaks. As the engine gets hot, steel expands. Perhaps that is why it doesn't do it hot.
