no i don't please elaborate. can you record yourself making the sounds?

did you check your head gasket?
leaking terribly when its cold at start up once it gets a little warmer the leak seals and the obese (will that fit) flowing of coolant is slowed. don't know what to say about the sound tho. ill look into it. and get back to you in a few.

heres what we know.. white smoke in the tail pipe means you have either a coolant leak inside the combustion chamber inside the engine or (don't know if this fits our cars) have a transmission fluid leak going into the combustion chamber.
steps to determining what sort of leak this is requires a radiator pressure tester. this will determine if its a coolant leak were it is coming from. if its from your head gasket (which im suspecting it is) go fix it or get some block sealer additive ( I do not promote the use of additives as a method of solving a problem. only prolonging and slowing the damage till you can get a mechanic or someone with know-how to do the job correctly and completely eliminate the problem) If you determine through testing that it is not a coolant leak post about it and we will look at the other possibility. is your car manual or automatic.. if manual disregard the part about leaking transmission fluid.

Does your coolant look discolored? do you loose coolant? Milky residue under oil cap and dipstick? You should do a compression test and pressure test the radiator.
