so when i start my car in the morning it will make a noise as if your holding the starter for too long. or if you have ever done it before, crank a car while its already on. It only does it for about 2 seconds and its than its gone, even if i let it sit for 8 hours, the noise doesnt come back until the next morning when i go to start it. I first assumed it was the TCT but i replaced it and the noise is the same. Possibly a bad oem TCT?

Starter; mine does the same exact thing on the occasional morning. Only happens when it's cold outside; never does it in the summer. I can live with it until it starts to annoy me/I want to dump money into it.
It's nothing you'll have to replace/fix immediately, but will probably be something in the near future to fix.

 

its the starter. the grease and the clutch particle become seized when cold. i would replace it if it was your daily driver. either rebuild, clean, or buy a new/used one. so when your car isn't starting and your battery is perfectly fine just gotta wait till temperature is average again.

 

okay good to know ill try cleaning it and see if it fixes it. thanks for all the input!

 

sure no problem, i just rebuild mine today now it a quiet pur when its starts
