C230K Engine sound @ Start up & Idle.

Is normal for a 2005 C230K with 38000 miles to sound a bit noisy at start up and idle? Car otherwise runs and accelerates great. Thanks for the help.

Thanks. I'm used to driving Nissan VQ35DE V6's. This is my 1st experience with the little MB 4 cyl and I have many questions.
BTW, I'm really enjoying the experience so far.

Still searching for that goofy sound. Where have you found your sound?
