Scratching sound on startup?

Scratching sound on startup?
Yah well recently occasionally on starting up my car there is this faint sort of scratching sound coming from the engine area. Its not all the time and it doesn't last more than 1 second. Just worries me that something is wrong... I thought it was the belts or something but the belts are tight and everything. Its just weird how it only does it every other startup or so.. Thats the only time.. Anyone experienced this or know anything?

Can you describe the sound any better?
My first impression is something starter related, since that is when it occurs.
I hear a scratching sound coming from my pants sometimes.Not sure how that relates to an audi....

Well the sound is pretty much right after the engine is started not during the start up. Sounds almost like there is a piece of ice or something falling into the fan and it just gets hit away. Like i saidi looked all in the fan area to see if there was anything there but nothing. The sound only does it occasionally and it only does it maybe twice just like something is falling in and getting knocked out.. Not sure...

OK< do this.....
Open the hood poke your head in there, have someone else start the car so you can better see/hear where it is coming from.
At least you'll be able to isolate the location its coming from.
