Default Clicking noise after moving from rest

Hi all. Have a question about a noise I hear. This is a click (one click only) that only seems to occur if the car has sat for around 5 minutes or longer. When started and put into gear and it starts to move, there is a metallic click that occurs about maybe 5 to 10 seconds after the car starts to move. I heard this same noise in my wife's old FX35 as well under the exact same circumstances. Nothing appears to be wrong. I'm thinking it might be coming from the brakes or TCS System as the ABS computer goes thru it's diagnostic thing.
Does this sound familiar to anyone?

I believe it's the abs activating, at 5 mph it will activate after starting the vehicle
