Hi. When i've started up my engine when its cold it makes a grinding noise thats louder than the engine itself. It could sound like lots of air passing through for example a bad air filter, but i've changed that, and the noise didn't change at all. Could also sound like a bad bearing, but the engine runs perfectly fine, and the sound has been there since i bought the car some 50 000km ago.
The sound quiets down as the engines getting warmer.

Is this a common problem? any ideas what it could be? I cant seem to find any breather hoses connected to the air filter, or any breather filters in the engine bay, could this have anything to do with it?
