Every G35 has this sound. It is the ABS system check/calibration. It occurs 5-10 seconds after you begin to drive.

Re: soft springlike noise at startup

you do realize there is a search button. It seems like you just bought this car, read the owners manual

Re: soft springlike noise at startup

I've noticed the same thing with my car (which I've had for about a month now). I wondered what it was and came across a post here that said it was the ABS self-test.

As for doing a search, which I've noticed there are plenty of people who resort to that statement without offering anything else to say, sometimes it's difficult to come up with the right search criteria to find any useful information. I can't believe that some people just can't answer a newbie's questions nicely and then maybe comment that there's some info on the subject elsewhere. It makes me wary of asking any questions at all.
