Corolla - Noise on cold mornings

Folks,

I recently got my power steering pump and rack changed. However, on cold mornings, when I start the car, it makes a loud grinding sound which dies off soon. This is exactly the same way my power steering pump problem started and I am scared that it might be the same thing happening again. Could be something totally different? Would appreciate any comments / feedback.

Thanks,

How cold is "cold mornings"? How soon does it die off? If it goes away after like 15 seconds I wouldn't worry about it. Then again I really can't tell you, as I've never heard it. I think for it to be a problem, it would have to do it all the time, not just when it's cold. But still, my advice is get it checked out if you're really worried.
