Hi guys, I'm new here but I'm hoping someone could help me out. I got my new Disco two weeks ago ( my 2nd, first was a P reg 300tdi).
The engine starts fine but briefly makes a loud vibrating noise, then it doesn't happen again. Also if you turn the engine off straight away, then start it up again it doesn't happen. It needs to be sitting for about 10 minutes or so for it to happen again. I don't recall hearing it when I test drove it. Maybe I did and didn't think anything of it, but it's really starting to bother me. I've got my local garage giving it a once over tomorrow just to give me peace of mind, but I was wondering if anyone could put their finger on this.

 
UPDATE:

Ok so last night I went out to work, depressed the clutch all the way whilst starting it. No difference,
So when I left work this morning, pressed the brake pedal while starting it. The noise was so much quieter, but instead it vibrated up my leg.
So borntobemild I think you're right about the ABS.
I've got no warning lights on the dash, so I didn't think for one second it could be that.
