Default 05 Civic cold start grind?

Has anyone else hada problem like this? It almost sounds like the starter isnt disengaging the flywheel fast enough. I made a video of it. Anyone know how to fix it? The service department was less then helpfull, I even brought in my camera and showed them the video. It only happens when it sits for awhile +6hrs and its cold out below 20F. Its beenhappening to me every morning before work, and every night after work.

Great idea making the video...actually my car (also an 05) made the EXACT same sound one cold morning. Can't be much more help than that though, sorry!
