Could be a water pump belt tensior etc your going to have to open the hood and start listening.Iam here for you but i cant hear the noise or where its coming from.You can use a long screw driver up to your ear and touching differnt parts of the car.Just becareful of spining/moving pulleyes.Let me know what you find.
