Grinding noise when I depress the gas pedal

Hi, I'm the happy owner of a beautiful new 5AT TL NAVI.
It's been getting raves from the office and my friends whom
I show the car to.

Recently though, I have noticed a 'grinding' when I depress
the gas pedal from start. This is felt through the pedal
itself. P push down on the pedal and feel this vibration and
hear a grinding sound. It lasts only a second or two but it is noticeable.

Anyone else have this problem and know what it might mean?
Any advice/experience would be most appreciated.

Cheers!

I'm wondering if you're not feeling the ABS calibrating itself. Shouldn't be a grinding sound - only a click that is almost inaudible and might be felt as a vibration. Just a guess.

Does this only happen after the car gets wet? If so, it's just your brake pads removing all the rust from the brake rotors.

I feel the grinding noise too. Like you stated, it occurs during few minutes after start up and lasts 3 seconds. Some vibration is felt thru the gas pedal. I think it's normal whatever it is.
