I have a '98 Regal LS with 107,000 miles (non-supercharged). It just got cold and is 30

degrees outside.

 

When the car first starts (cold) and I press the gas I hear a low

chattering/clicking/swishing type noise. It happens both when the car is in

park or when its moving as soon as the gas is pressed. It goes away once the engine is warmed up and doesnt come back until its been left off out in the cold for several hours. t

 

Its hard to hear it with your ear under the hood but easier to hear in the drivers seat. I took a video of the sound. Its faint but you can hear it...it almost sounds like I'm moving around inside the car. Please help me diagnose this!

P.S.

The power steering pump is starting to feel worn....I assume the power steering pump is going to fail in the next year or two
