draining water sound?

Sometimes after a cold start it sounds like some sort of liquid running through pipes. Anyone else experience this or know what it is?

I'm not sure if it's air in the cooling system. It literally sounds like liquid running through a pipe. Dirty Thirty, you hear it too? That sounds exactly like the same thing. I wonder also if it's a problem or not.

I had the same problem with my car. More of an annoyance than a problem really.

The dealership took care of it immediately after I let them know there was a TSB out for it.
