Yea I have the same thing going on with mine. Sometimes i can hear it when its warm too, but my dad told me not worry about it. Its been doing that at every cold start, so I am not worried anymore.

wouldn't oil be "thick" when its cold.....? thats why ur oil pressure is higher when the car is cold... just a thought though....
