Can you take a quick video and post it?

Please put your model in your sig as well.
That is actually a pretty darn good guess. It almost sounds like when the belts or idlers and such are going bad, but this only last a moment at start up.

Any way to check the idlers, pulleys and tensioners on the M62TU in the X5?

Maybe a brief high pitched screech is a more apt description
