TSB EG019-07 Knock for one second at cold start-up. They have replacement cam gears and a software upgrade. Mine has always done this and never knew it was a prolbem.
If doesnt hurt your engine. I would wait till my car hits 65k miles and get that TSIB done. I seen it and they basically have to tare down the top of your engine.
I didn't even get the free 5k service done at the dealer yet alone let the dealer take apart my engine.
That start up noise has no negative affects on the engine. Just wait till 65k miles and then get it done.
