weird noise on startup?
i started my car this morning, and right after i started it, it made a hissing sound, or "kssht" sound. then it idled normally but i pulled it back into the garage because im not sure whats wrong. i always get my oil changed at 3000 miles, but this time i went like 4000. do you think this is related to not changing my oil? has anybody had this noise?

Whenever I put my key in and flip it to ON, I get the noise almost everytime.

Sounds like the airbox getting its first breath or two in. my car has always had what i call a baby spooling sound coming from the air intake that got more prevailent when i switched to various CAI's

edit: also, i just picked up 2 quarts of oil, and put them in. i started the car, and it didnt make the noise. does this mean my car is burning oil? there's never any pools of liquid underneath my car.
