Can you describe the sound? It could be the alternator has a heavier load on it since the car hasn't been started for a couple days.

Have you removed the belts to see if you can find a belt driven accessory that may be causing the noise?

After driving the car around for 5 min, the sound goes away. The whole day is fine. Thanks for your help. Rudy Cordeiro.

I would remove the belt and see if any of the accessories are making noise.
