Default Gurgling sound from rear of car...
Ok so I moved from Baltimore to Van Nuys last week. Car ran great. But I am now getting this weird gurgling sound on startup that goes away after about 5-10 seconds. What the heck is it?? Do I need a new fuel fiter or pump? Other than water in my exhaust, I cant think of any other fluids back there..maybe brakes..but thats it. I did overfill the tank once on the drive, and maybe theres gas just pooled up somewhere now? Thanks!

Default normal at start up the pump turns on and you'll generally hear a few seconds of liquid being moved
... i believe it's the tank balancing itself out... but it's totally normal
