Intermittent Noise on startup

Hi Friends,
I have observed this only twice till now.. but both time happened with in a weeks time.. When I try to start my car up there was a loud noise(Noise similar to when u try to crank a running engine). Is this something serious to be looked into?

Thanks,
Sid

If your car is NA or a TT with aftermarket downpipes, it's not too bad. If your car is a TT with stock precats, it sucks.
