Unhappy 2017 Tahoe Starting Noise

My 2017 Tahoe LT with the 5.3 liter engine has a short “grinding” noise right after startup. I have found a couple YouTube recordings online but no follow up fixes. Does anyone know if there are any Technical Service Bulletins issued? The Tahoe is currently with the dealer and I have had no response yet.

post a video.
was the starter recently changed? If the starter clearance is wrong the starter drive could grind going in or out

Thanks for your response. Dealer has not yet gotten back to me; still trying to replicate the noise.
