[Vwdiesel] 93 EuroVan diesel - speaking in tongues

It's the starter.  There's a dry or worn bushing, that after the torque is
removed from the shaft by the bendix disengaging, and you turn the key from
the start position so the electric motor isn't motoring, it coasts to a
stop, and the worn or dry bushing vibrates in place.

I think it's Portugese - when I start up now just an instant after
chick-vroom there is a < bvshshhht > sound - like air pressure through
a membrane, like an inflated bladder collapsing, like an automotive
raspberry - anyone know what this is? I could swear it's a new
phenomenon
vacuum pump filling? faulty seal leaking? what pressurizes immediately
on startup? brakes?
thanks for any guesses you can throw my way
(sound only lasts @ 1/2 second, starts a fraction of a second after
engine fires up)
