Hey guys ,

When I turn my VR on it kicks then makes a winding noise for a second then goes away again, It doesn't affect the car but it annoys me , it sounds like the fan belt but I'm not 100% , any body wanna have a guess?

That would be the fuel pump priming the fuel system. Without that noise, the car will not start.

It may be the starter motor not disengaging properly.
