Noise just during take off/at start

I have a noise that I hear just during take off and it is quite annoying. Its not annoying to the ears, it just annoying to the point that something could be wrong and needs to be fixed. More money that I would not like to spend.

It kind of hard to describe other than I would assume that it could me a motor mount that is worn and needs to be replace. Its like creak noise, but it is not like you step on a piece of wood creak noise. It sounds more like a "errrr" noise. And it only happens if I take off normal speed to fast speed, if I ease into the start then you don't hear it. Its like somethings is being pulled or pushed back when I take off.

Has anyone else have this problem or no someone that has this noise? If it is the motor mount bushing, is that hard to replace? Would I need to take it to the dealer to get it done?

I bought a MCS '08 only two weeks ago and I just got a sound that can be described the same as yours. Have you found out what it might be?
Thanks for any insight
