Need help with random exterior car noises

I'm hearing some weird noises with my car.

When I start it first thing in the morning or after it has been sitting for a long time, there's a metal rumbling sound which goes away after 15 mins of driving.

Another thing is whenever I start my car, after going above maybe 10 MPH, I hear some type of burp sound. This sound only happens the very first time the car goes past 10 MPH, but it always happens after starting my car (if I come to a complete stop and the engine is still on, there is no sound after accelerating).

Anyone have any suggestions? It's a 2004 coupe.

The "burp" sound is normal i think. My car does it too. I think it might be the emissions control or something.

The 2nd is the ABS system check to check that it's working ok, idk about the first thing.

No, it's not a problem. It's the ABS doing a system check, making sure everything is ok. It's supposed to make that noise, if it doesn't that's when you have the problems. I think it's the computer locking the brakes for .001 of a second to make sure they are working ok, hence the noise.

The 2nd noise sounds like something getting warmed up, but I'm not sure.
