Default Rumble noise on cold engine?

Hey,

I have a 2001 Dodge Intrepid ES with a 3.2 V6. The car runs great and only has 54,000 miles. One thing I have noticed, however, is that when I initially start the car for the first time of the day and then put it in drive, I hear this small rumble in the front of the engine. After the car gets going it goes away and doesn't return. If I stop the car and leave it a few hours and then start it, it doesn't make the noise.It seems to be idling fine.It has to be a cold engine for it to do it. Any ideas on what might be causing it? Do I need some kind of tune up?

Thanks!

I have the same car and the same noise. I'm wondering what it is too. Makes me wonder if it's something common & hopefully not anything bad.....
