Default Recurring takeoff noise au1 falcon

Occassionally, maybe once or twice a week, there is a noise that comes from what sounds like a quick dull scratch sound. The noise comes up within 2-3 seconds from initial acceleration. :

The noise has never occurred after 7-10 seconds of driving. So it seems that a part of something is readjusting just before the car takes off.

Are there any one of you who have experienced this noise from the ford falcon au1 model? and is it one of the standard complaints on this type of car?

It is difficult to diagnose without being able to drive the car and hearing and feeling the slight scratching sound yourself. What do you guys suggest is the best way to go about identifying this sound? I am a bit illiterate with cars so cannot really identify the source of the noise - i just hear and feel it from time to time.

thanks
