Hi guys,

I have a 1996 328i. Over the last few days I have started to notice a gurgling sound coming from the front right side of my car. It only lasts for about a minute when I start my car. Initially I thought this was the sound of the coolant being sucked into the overflow bin...but I'm not sure.

Any idea what the sound could be??

passanger side? does it sound a little like a turbine?

could be the emissions air pump. they're known to fail after awhile.
