My 2001 Boxster S (91000kms) also makes the whine at first start up of the day (& then only on subsequent starts that the car has been shutdown for a few hours) which leads me to think it has to do with cold starts & hence secondary air pump.
My car is right hand drive (live in Australia) & the sound appears to be coming from the front left side of the car? I could be wrong though.
Previous non-Porsche cars that I've had gave this whine when one of the belts were slipping (when the car was started or sometimes pulling off the lights).
Anyone come up with any ideas or could they post audio of their respective sounds? I'm going to record my sound in the next couple of days.
Thanks in advance.
Matt
