Troubling Noise
Recently I have been hearing a kind of whining, or crying noise while inside the car during first day/morning starts, and starts when the car has been sitting for a longer period of time.. When looking under the hood I do not hear it, but when i am sitting inside the car at a stop light or whatever I hear it.. This noise is sometimes loud, lower, and in and out.. It usually lasts 6 mins or so then goes away..
My question
What could be causing this noise?? Should I even worry about it if the noise goes away? What could I do to get rid of it (its a very annoying sound)?
Thanks everyone..

My car makes same noise whenever car has been sitted for more than 24 hour..so usually Monday morning, when I didn't use car for Sunday.. Mine began to make this noise around 80K miles. Friend of mine own same vehicle(1997 model), his car make whenever he starts his car. He has roughly 150K miles. Something to do with engine oil? I know dealer has been told me that my oil switch is bad or something.. I don't know what it does though.
I don't know much about car, but I kept thinking it might be caused by oil since car only makes noise when it has been parked for while.
