Wondering if anyone has this issue in cold/wet weather. Twice now, when starting the car on cold days after it sat for 2 days, there is a gurgling sound from the exhaust. It didn't happen this past winter, but it has happened a couple times since fall has started. My car tilts forward slightly in the space outside my house for draining purposes, so that may factor in. If I drive the car for 30 seconds away from my house, up the street to the first red light, it's gone for the day. Anyone else notice this?

could be condensation in the exhaust. i wouldn't worry about it. it also runs pretty rich on cold starts to that might make it "gurgle".
