I live in Calgary Canada. Sometimes the temp dips to minus 30C. When I start my car under these conditions I hear a ringing sound coming from the engine. It lasts about 2 minutes then goes away when the car is warm. Anyone else have the same problem or know what it might be?

LOL, it's prolly the engine saying -- "holy icebox-- someone turn the freakin' heat on"...... [img]/w3timages/icons/tongue.gif[/img]

That's 'Brass Monkey' weather bro. Have you thought of plugging the block heater in for a couple of hrs in the morning? Works for me.
It may not cure the 'ringing' you're talking about (that's prolly drive belts), but the engine will thank you, and reward you with faster warmups, better gas mileage, less ware and tear, and other advantages.

Wow I think I know what your talking about mine does it in the morning but not for 2 minutes, just that first initial rev that the engine does I hear a slight ring like tone that seems to come from the exhaust but what do I know. was wondering what it was.

 

Find a warm bed for your baby and maybe she will stop crying at you.....
