Car starting issues

Lol, I'll give it a try at recording tomorrow. Oddly, it didn't do it this morning and I noticed I left the heated seats turned off over night and on start up and it was definitely cold enough that I expected a grind. Usually I leave the seat heat in the on position just so I don't have to mess with turning it on every morning. FWIW: they dont heat without the car on, I've checked.

it sounds like belts.. generally in the cold its harder for things to move, especially rubber. if your heated seats were on before the car is started your putting a large load on the alternator and the belt may be slipping around the alternator pulley. i would check them once you drive home from work.. make sure they're nice and warm.
