[Solved] why is my engine loud at startup

Hey guys...I have a 2017 Ford Fusion 22,000 miles (automatic transmission).  I was just wondering about something?  When I first start up my car, the engine sounds like a diesel (a little bit loud), but after I've been driving for awhile it's "as quiet as a mouse". (I can barely hear it).  I was just wondering why that is?  Is that just normal?  Nothing is wrong with the car as far as I can tell.  Just curious???

I think your engine has GDI. If so, the noise could be from the high pressure fuel pump.

Run a scan for codes and see what comes up.

IDK if this is the case with your Fusion, but a leak or crack in your exhaust system - most often if in the manifold - will do this. The crack will close as the exhaust heats up the metal and makes it expand. If you're not getting any codes, I'd check for this problem.
