    Recently have found that, when cold, my truck makes a lot more sound when starting it up. Its a more pronounced starting sound. Idk how to describe it. I'll try to get it on video tomorrow morning. Could my starter be going bad? Or maybe my fuel system needs cleaning?

    its pretty much ALWAYS going to be louder on a cold startup.

    I dont know of anything that starts up quieter... except hybrids.
