noise question

I have a 'groaning' noise coming from my engine compartment when I put my car in gear (cold). It last about a second and may do it a second time before I get going. Has anybody had this happen? What might it be?

Thx

Yes, it's the seperate front and rear anti-lock brake systems loading up for initial use- It's normal. In a safe and clear environment at low speed, I locked up my tires and initiated the anti-lock system. I heared them doing that again. I also got the feel of the VSA feature
