My '98 XC makes a strange noise in the engine compartment when starting. It's almost a honking sound, and lasts about a minute. As the sound diminishes, its pitch increases until it's totally gone. Sounds like something "spooling-up". Serp. belt has been changed, and there are no obvious problems with pulleys or idlers. P/S fluid has been replaced with Mobil 1 ATF. I wonder if the P/S pump is sucking air through a bad seal on the steering rack?

Thanks!
